With so many vendors exhibiting at VMworld, how do you know which booths
to visit

Read this exclusive pre-show interview with StarWind to learn what they have planned for the
upcoming VMworld 2017 event.
VMblog: As a VMworld 2017 sponsor, how can people
find you this year? How many people are
you sending?
StarWind: We'll be at VMworld
with a 10x10 booth #1132 near the lounge zone. We'll be represented by a team
of eight members, including technical experts who can answer any questions on
our product line.
VMblog: And is there anything unique about this
year's booth setup?
StarWind: This year, we will be
focusing on presenting our new storage solution for enterprises. It is
infinitely scalable, ultimately resilient and high-performing, and what is
really important it's power- and cost-efficient. We'll provide a demo and
answer all questions considering the features and benefits that our new product
delivers to enterprises.
VMblog: Can you give readers a few reasons why your
product or service is considered unique?
StarWind: The amount of data is
growing every day and companies need to expand their storage systems to
maintain it. The problem is, that traditional systems are extremely expensive
in terms of scaling and maintenance, and they lack resiliency. The new solution
by StarWind is an infinitely scalable storage platform built on off-the-shelf,
low-power, "disposable" components. It greatly reduces scaling and operational
expenses with 10x lower infrastructure, cooling and power costs while providing
ultimate resiliency to multiple simultaneous component failures.
VMblog: Why should a VMworld attendee add you to
their MUST SEE list?
StarWind: Looking for a "green"
storage solution that scales simply up to petabyte level, provides ultimate
performance and resiliency? We've got it! Visit our booth and check how it
works.
VMblog: What do you like most about sponsoring
VMworld?
StarWind: It's a great event and
a unique opportunity to share experience and present new technologies. It's
also a great chance to get involved with the audience and IT professionals to provide
them with solutions that fully meet their needs.
VMblog: Can you give VMblog readers a sneak peek as
to what you will be showing off at your booth this year?
StarWind: We'll be presenting
our enterprise storage solution. VMworld attendees will have an exclusive
opportunity to become the first to see the demo of our new product, its
features and functionality.
VMblog: How does your company and product fit within
the VMware ecosystem?
StarWind: StarWind products run
on multiple hypervisors, including VMware ESXi, making it really easy for
customers who are using VMware, to integrate our solutions into their
infrastructures.
VMblog: What are you looking forward to most at
VMworld this year?
StarWind: We are excited to
present our new product and get a feedback from the audience. It's a great
chance to get engaged with new customers and show them how our solutions satisfy
their needs.
VMblog: What would you say to prospective attendees
who are thinking about attending VMworld but aren't sure if it's worth it or
not?
