While ​@Rick Vanover  was attending VeeamON Tour in Munich and enjoyed his time with our German community, I was joined by special guests, ​@safiya  and ​@HangTen416  for a good discussion covering the latest community highlights and a range of technical topics. This episode features a fun look at VeeaMatrix—the Veeam-themed Matrix screensaver nobody asked for (but everyone needs)—alongside a real-world lesson on hidden data center risks and governance failures. Plus, the team shares the exciting news that the VMCE+ certification is now live.

    ​@Andanet, ​@Dynamic , ​@TondaStrnadArrow , ​@NPatel and anyone who is VMCE+ certified. I see a new challenge here ;) who will be the first to write about the VMCE+ experience? 😎

      Great recap ​@Madi.Cristil, ​@safiya and ​@HangTen416!

      It was an honor and a lot of fun to represent the community at VOT Munich alongside the other V100 members—and despite rumors, I did occasionally do more than just hand out ice cream 😄

          I didn’t try the ice cream myself, but I heard it was great 😄

                        Great recap this week and nice to see my colleague ​@HangTen416 

                        It is outstanding the VMCE+ released, as it was fun working on the development of that.

                        Congrats everyone mentioned this week and welcome all new members to the community.

                        Have a great weekend, everyone.
