TAM Lab 079 – Using vRA Cloud to operate a Multi-Cloud Environment

Myself and Katherine Skilling (LinkedIn, Twitter) recorded a session for TAM Lab and VMUG Events.

In the below session, we cover how to use vRealize Automation Cloud (or vRA 8.x for on-prem) to operate your Multi-Cloud environment.

So what does this actually mean?

We cover how to use vRealize Automation to deploy and consume your public cloud provider of choice. This is a demo heavy recording and we cover the following;

  • vRealize Automation Core Components
  • Image Mapping
  • Flavour Mapping
  • Machine Flavours
  • Using the Cloud Template canvas in design and code view (Blueprints)
  • Deploying your first virtual machine
  • Deploying your virtual machine to different public cloud providers
  • Creating inputs for configuration
  • Advanced configuration with CloudConfig
  • Basic Troubleshooting

Introducing VMware TAM Lab YouTube Channel

The VMware Technical Account Management team have been producing some internal videos for a while now, to show off what we see in the field or tackle common issues, or discuss new technology.

Thanks to my earlier work creating a GUI with PowerShell, I was asked to present this internally.

Since then, we’ve taken TAMLAB public, thanks to the hard work of Steve Tilkens, so give our channel a follow, and you can see my recording below;

The purpose of TAM Lab is to provide in-depth technology workshop sessions led by VMware Technical Account Managers (TAMs) to enable a culture of learning and partnership across the VMware organization and our customers. TAM Lab provides a platform for all to be hands-on with VMware and non-VMware technologies that will enable a stronger customer delivery through product knowledge and a greater technical resource network. All TAM Lab sessions are recorded for the purpose of creating a reference library for on-demand learning and enablement.
