VMware Validated Solutions for VMware Cloud Foundation

Introduction

VMware Validated Solutions are technically validated implementations built and tested by VMware.

They are designed to help customers solve common business problems using VMware Cloud Foundation as the foundational infrastructure.

This repository is a companion to the following validated solutions:

• Health Reporting and Monitoring for VMware Cloud Foundation\

  A validated solution that provides health monitoring for the VMware Cloud Foundation components using HTML reports and custom dashboards, alerts, and notifications using VMware Aria Operations.

  The repository provides:

  • Python Module for VMware Cloud Foundation Health Monitoring in VMware Aria Operations.
  • Custom dashboards, alerts, notifications, and super metric artifacts in VMware Aria Operations.

• Advanced Load Balancing for VMware Cloud Foundation

  A validated solution enables you to build secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient load balancing infrastructure for applications and workloads deployed on VMware Cloud Foundation. You can leverage this solution to rapidly implement VMware NSX Advanced Load Balancer in a VMware Cloud Foundation environment to increase security, automation, and provide enterprise-grade developer-ready infrastructure for load balancing.

  The repository provides:

  • Infrastructure-as-code examples for the solution. This includes Terraform examples for the deployment and configuration of the solution.

• Private Cloud Automation for VMware Cloud Foundation

  A validated solution which enables you to implement a modern cloud automation platform that delivers self-service automation, DevOps for infrastructure, and orchestration using Aria Automation and VMware Cloud Foundation.

  The repository provides:

  • Infrastructure-as-code examples for the solution. This includes Terraform examples for the deployment and configuration of the solution.

  • Step-by-step implementation guidance to create a sample project in Aria Automation after deploying the solution using both the UI and infrastructure-as-code where applicable.
