Interested In A Technical Deep Dive on NFS Network Design?

You’re in luck! I’ve submitted a proposal, session number 4518, to VMworld’s Call for Papers that is being voted on to cover some of experiences and recommended practices around creating an efficient and highly available NFS network. I think those with NFS storage networks, or those who are interested in deploying one, will gain significant value from this session. If you feel the same, make sure to click the “thumbs up” button in the VMworld Public Voting page before the deadline on Monday, May 6th at 5:00 PM PDT.

The abstract for this session is as follows:

NFS is becoming more widely accepted as a critical storage platform for vSphere environments, but presents some unique design challenges to ensure availability and performance. In this session, attendees will learn the most common pitfalls for enterprise deployments of NFS with vSphere, along with how to overcome them. Cutting edge deployment scenarios using converged infrastructure, blade technologies, and rack mount servers will all be discussed.
