Veeam Legend confirmed for the first half of 2026
Veeam Legend confirmed for the first half of 2026
Good day everyone, today the morning started nicely with the email informing me that I have have been officially renewed as a Veeam Legend for the first half of the current year 2026.
Being a *Legend *has many advantages, like *NFR *licenses to power up my mini home lab ;-) but being honest the best part is to be a member of the exclusive club named Veeam 100, toghether with the Veeam Vanguards (in short, the best bloggers) and Veeam MVP (the more active Veeam’s employee).
As a member of the club I have exclusive access to tech&strategies previews and so on… but if I really really have to be honest, the super great mega advantage is to be invited in the annual V100 Summit! A very special meeting with a lot of tech and fun! No marketing frills, just geek’s talks ;-)
Personally one of the special gift that the V100 Summits gave me is the chance to have a little “holiday” from my daily second job of being a caregiver. And I have the beloved chance to see **Berlin **again in 2024, and **Praha **for the first time in my life in 2025! Thank you Veeam!
It’s still a long way to go to remain in the program for the second half of the year and being invited again. I’ll need to work for it, in a not so easy working condition and… get the permission from my company to have some free days to come. Let’s… Drüken die Daume!
*It was not that easy to remain in the program, mostly because I’m really struggling with my job: the company I was working for since 2023 has “crashed”, slowly lost all of its customers and shut down it activities during last summer. I’ve been hired by another one but -despite my efforts lobbying with my internal Veeam’s contacts (special thanks ****Fausto ****and ****Stefano ***for your time)- it seems hard to get new customers soon and I’m probably going to be “body rented” (partial or full time, I don’t know yet) to a company that uses competitor’s tecnologies.
In my blogging and competence sharing activities it’s crucial to work on the real battle field, face issues, fight against low performances and so on. That provides a lot if topics to discuss and share solutions. Sure I have my little lab (2 NUCs only) and I’ve done my best to test and share some experience from it but, naturally, it’s not like dealing with real life real production environments..
