University Technology Professionals Recognized for VMware Contributions
VMware recently awarded Will Allred, associate director of technology for Walton College of Business; Michael Davis, virtual infrastructure administrator for Information Technology Services; and Scott Zemke, director of technology for Fay Jones School of Architecture, as 2015 vExperts.
The VMware vExpert program acknowledges those who have made outstanding contributions to the virtualization community in the previous year, including high participation in and moderation of VMware forums. Although this award is not a technical certification or a measure of VMware expertise, vExperts receive many benefits, including early access to new VMware services, annual evaluation licenses, access to an exclusive directory for professional networking, and featured listings in the vExpert directory.
