Planning MangoCon

Would people really be looking for arbitrary labs like that at a conference? Maybe they would, this isn't something that I would be looking to do in this setting.

I know this is different but the idea came from this

Part of the place and time for that is getting to use their stuff in labs. Just Seeing it at a table but not having hands on doesn't help a ton.

I was just thinking of an area for when people have down time or when there are sessions going on that they didn't want to be a part of.

Just throwing ideas out there. I have an old HP laptop I could donate if you guys decide to do something like that.

A couple of the Vendors have offered to setup labs. However the idea of the labs is for the training that will be going on for the sessions. Not sure we would want to do anything beyond supporting training that is going on.

Hands on for a product introduction would make sense to me. But a skills lab where random training labs are set up for people to practice skills seems odd.

VM performance monitoring, reading the results, and fixing the problems.

I'm trying to see how any class can be generic enough to apply to many/most yet also specific enough that people will want to attend.

I really like the idea of the deep dives.

Performance tuning is definitely of interest to me either VMWare or Hyper-V as those are the most like to be used.... I know that KVM is getting some press at ML lately....
