August absolutely zoomed past me as I returned from sabbatical and school started. We accomplished plenty, and I can’t wait for what September has in store (hopefully, with some cooler temperatures in Texas!). There’s much you may have missed, including the announcement of the next evolution of THWACKcamp® with THWACK® community sessions coming up after SolarWinds Day in October. We hope to see you in the live chat and/or at an in-person event.
