Intelligent Automation with VMware

By: Ajit Pratap Kundan

Overview of this book

This book presents an introductory perspective on how machine learning plays an important role in a VMware environment. It offers a basic understanding of how to leverage machine learning primitives, along with a deeper look into integration with the VMware tools used for automation today. This book begins by highlighting how VMware addresses business issues related to its workforce, customers, and partners with emerging technologies such as machine learning to create new, intelligence-driven, end user experiences. You will learn how to apply machine learning techniques incorporated in VMware solutions for data center operations. You will go through management toolsets with a focus on machine learning techniques. At the end of the book, you will learn how the new vSphere Scale-Out edition can be used to ensure that HPC, big data performance, and other requirements can be met (either through development or by fine-tuning guidelines) with mainstream products.

Summary


In this chapter, we learned how LInt can access VMware Cloud on AWS audit logs for faster monitoring and troubleshooting as a core service with real-time alerts on anomalies based on custom triggers. It will also provide you with custom dashboards to visualize trends for effective notifications on custom alerts and high-performance searches within logs for faster root-cause analysis. We went through how it provides a single console across a broad range of applications such as VMware Cloud on AWS, cloud-based applications, and Native AWS EC2-based applications along with Wavefront integration for faster troubleshooting with logs and metrics. We saw how to determine the health of an on-premises SDDC environment quickly by identifying anomalies across infrastructure and applications and accelerating troubleshooting with out-of-the-box dashboards for VMware SDDC solutions, such as vCenter and NSX.

 

 

In the next chapter, we will explore machine learning as a service (MLaaS) by using vRealize...
