Would You Be Interested In Some Product Overview Style Videos?

Kinda like the title says, gauging interest in some video content before I make any

I do a lot of blogs, mostly covering how to setup, deploy and update VCF/Veeam stuff on my website

However, I dont really touch on a showcase of that the product can do

Now for work, I do a LOT of product demos showcasing what VCF can do, Ops, vSAN, NSX, K8S kinda thing

So I was thinking of making some videos like that which just show you, in a lot of detail, what the solutions can do and how I am using them in my lab

I think they would help a bit in working out if you wanna use the service, the configurations guides, I think are helpful, but if you just want to see what it can do to decide if your even interested, they are kinda pants at that

I think a video/webinar style thing would work a lot better vs a blog format, would definitely like to give it a go, if there is some demand

Would this be helpful to the VCF community?

Always appreciate any feedback

Do You Need To Backup ArgoCD

Possibly stupid question, K8S newbie, but do you actually need to backup an ArgoCD instance

Since, from my understanding, its just pushing files from Git, it shouldnt need to be? Or is that wrong

Thanks in advance ❤️

9.1 is finally public, though still awaiting the GA release of the software, but that does mean I can share out the full 9.1 deployment guide, so thank you Broadcom - They seemed to be fine with it all going live now their announcement is done

This guide is the same style as my VCF 9.0.x Ultimate Deployment Guide, and this articels delivers everything it did, and a little more, all from the start, I split the original guide over 6 months

This covers

Deploying VCF 9.1
Topology design
Requirements
FQDN/IP Tables
Supervisor/VKS deployment
VCF Operations For Networks
Real Time Metrics
vSAN ESA snapshot appliance - New vs my 9.0.x guide
Commissioning new hosts
Deploying new workload domains and clusters
Fleet Scaling

If you curious about the changes in more detail this should cover most of what you want to know, especially around the VCF Services Runtime, which sadly really did increase the requirements vs 9.0.x

Do drop questions in the comments, always happy to help

Hope this helps people learn and deploy the new major release ❤️
