SAN JOSE, Calif., April 26, 2018 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Virtual Instruments, the leader in application-centric infrastructure performance management (IPM), today announced that its Chief Technology Officer, John Gentry, has been accepted into the Forbes Technology Council, an invitation-only community for world-class CIOs, CTOs and technology executives.
