Greetings everyone, VeeamON 2021 has finished, and I have been trying to cover the most important announcements of the event, especially those announcements with Roadmap News, etc. You can find the different articles here:
- Veeam: Veeam Announces Veeam Backup for Microsoft Office 365 v6 – Self-Service Portal and Native Integration with Azure Archive and AWS S3 Glacier
- Veeam: Veeam Announces Enhancements for new versions of Veeam Backup for AWS v4/Azure v3/GVP v2
- Veeam: Veeam Announces Support for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization (RHEV/KVM)
I am excited about everything that is coming, the whole Multi-Cloud approach, the improvements for the protection of Office 365 workloads, and as a true Linux geek, the support for Red Hat Enterprise Virtualization will be a huge win on those Customers running it.
Unofficial Nike Green Sneakers
One of the most anticipated, reshared, and liked on Social Media, was the exclusive Veeam sneakers, which you can get for around $600 with shipping from here. They look awesome, with the VeeamON, and Veeam logo, etc. But a bit out of my particular reach for a pair of trainers.
So, knowing that Nike themselves allows you to personalize the colors of the Nike Air Force 1, I made something similar, a completely unofficial pair of Nike Green Sneakers, here is the full link to purchase from the UK, at approx $150, no logos or anything, just green, black, and white:
From the official pictures, this is how they look like:
From my pair, which just arrived, they look like this in real-life:
Alright, now that you have the information on how to get a pair of these great green sneakers, let’s jump to my favorite sessions.
