Netrix and Nerdio are opening a live lab for one day in Chicago. Bring your laptop, work inside a real Nerdio Manager for Enterprise environment, and pick up deployment practices that actually hold up in 2026.

Why block off the day
Using Nerdio’s management platform, you’ll work directly in a lab environment and pick up practices for simpler deployment and a better end‑user experience.
Every exercise runs inside a real Nerdio Manager for Enterprise environment. You’re not watching a demo, you’re driving it.
Engineers from Netrix and Nerdio lead each block, so the questions you ask are the ones your team actually has.
Deployment, image management, auto-scale. You’ll walk out with practices you can put to work Monday morning.
Who should attend
We’ll walk through host pools, images, and user experience settings from the ground up. No assumptions about what you’ve already deployed.
You know the basics. We’ll focus on cutting costs, tightening auto‑scale, and cleaning up the day‑to‑day so your environment runs itself.
Please bring your laptop. You’ll get access to your own dedicated lab environment right from your own device.
How the day breaks down
10:00 AM to 4:00 PM CT, lunch included. The order below may flex a little on the day.
Logistics
Your lab environment runs right from your own device. No pre-install needed, just show up charged.
Bring a photo ID. Front desk staff will point you to the workshop room.
It’s built into the agenda, so you can stay heads-down without planning around a food run.
