vSphere Quick Bytes Videos - Sept/Oct 2021 - Things you might have missed

The following blog article is a compendium of vSphere "Quick Bytes" videos published between September 2021 and October 2021. If you're looking to learn more about PowerCLi, Native Key Provider, Certifications and Compliance and other facets of vSphere but don't have to the time to sit through an hour each, vSphere Quick Bytes is a great way to get up to speed. These are interviews with other members of the vSphere Tech Marketing Team.

This summer I sat down with a number of the other vSphere Technical Marketing folks and recorded some video interviews on topics we all thought you’d be interested in. Below is a table with the description and link to the videos and their publishing date. If you have questions on things like Native Key Provider, PowerCLI, vSphere certifications and Compliance or any of the other topics then I think these interview style videos will be of interest to you.

Native Key Provider with Bob Plankers

In this Quick Bytes video Bob and I will discuss the new vSphere 7.0 Update 2 feature called "Native Key Provider".

We'll talk about how it compares against a standard KMS and when you should choose one over the other.
