Happy new year! On the 12th episode of Virtual Stack Podcast, Martijn (@smitmartijn) and I will be talking about vRealize Network Insight (vRNI) version 4.0. vRNI 4.0 has been released on December 20th and it’s full of cool new features and enhancements.
This is not a vRNI 101 episode, but in a nutshell, vRNI is VMware’s security and network visibility tool that helps customers plan application security and migration, optimise and troubleshoot virtual and physical networks, and manage & scale NSX environments.
Hope you enjoy the show. Feel free to share your feedback via Twitter, LinkedIn or virtualstack.tech.
