Congratulations, this was the configuration of your first blueprint, including advanced parameters; the new service is now ready to be ordered using the catalog menu. This concludes the chapter on vRA. It was meant to provide powerful insights of what this tool can achieve with the right configuration.
Although it is impossible to describe every function in great detail in this chapter, this should be an overview of the most important functionalities. Finally, the chapter concluded in a series of sample configurations to create a first Windows service blueprint for a pre-existing catalog.
In the next chapter, the focus will be on vRealize Orchestrator. This is the powerful counterpart to vRA and will enhance the deployment of VMs by running individual workflows based on properties. Also, it can be used to create completely new services based on workflows which will be imported as XaaS services to be ordered using the vRealize portal.
