We have many submissions posted by the NetApp Virtual Solutions Engineering Team (my team), various NetApp business units, and numerous partners and customers. Frankly I find the partner and customer sessions some of the most compelling as they will let you know EXACTLY how well our solutions work and where they need further development.
With that said here’s a list of sessions from NetApp, our partners and customers. In each category I have listed the partners and customer sessions ahead of the NetApp sessions.
