VMware Cloud on AWS Blueprint: Designing, automating, and migrating VMware workloads on AWS global infrastructure

Gain hands-on knowledge through relevant use cases and best practices to seamlessly migrate and scale legacy enterprise-grade applications running on on-premises vSphere environments to VMware Cloud SDDCs running on AWS infrastructure Key Features Understand data center extension, migration, disaster recovery, and app modernization with various use cases Learn the configuration, automation, and troubleshooting of VMC on AWS SDDC Apply design considerations, best practices, and onboarding preflight checklist for optimal performance on VMC on AWS Purchase of the print or Kindle book includes a free eBook in PDF format Book DescriptionCustomers aiming to exit or extend their on-premises VMware vSphere environments and shift from a capital expenditure (CAPEX) to an operational expenditure (OPEX) model using minimal time and expertise in re-platforming legacy applications to cloud-native framework, can rely on the VMware Cloud (VMC) on AWS platform. This book will provide comprehensive coverage on hybrid cloud challenges and VMware Cloud on AWS solutions. The book begins with an overview of VMware Cloud on AWS foundational architecture and Software Defined Data Center (SDDC) components along with intricacies of network and security configurations and integrations with native AWS services. It details the vCenter management, vSAN storage policies, NSX architecture, compute policies, SDDC console management, and the EDRS mechanism for cluster scaling. Youll explore integrated services such as VMware HCX for migration, VMware Aria suite, Tanzu Managed Kubernetes, and disaster recovery services. Youll then delve into multiple VMware Cloud APIs and address workloads using VMware Cloud on AWS Outposts. Practical insights, configuration tips, and best practices will enable you to unlock the full potential of VMC on AWS. After reading this book, youll be able to successfully architect and manage VMware Cloud on AWS SDDCs & the related ongoing day-to-day operations.What you will learn Details the foundational architecture components of VMware Cloud on AWS including vSphere, vSAN and NSX Explore the various integrated services offered within VMware Cloud on AWS Deep dive into VMware Cloud on AWS SDDC, vCenter, and vSAN optimizations Build applications and implement best practices within the VMware Cloud on AWS for managing day-to-day operations Streamline infrastructure management for VMware Cloud on AWS with Infrastructure as Code (IaC) Extend cloud to on-premises environments using VMware Cloud on AWS Outposts Who this book is forThe book is intended for cloud and solutions architects, DevOps engineers, site reliability engineers (SREs), system and network admins, and cloud engineers with experience in on-premises VMware or AWS administration, facilitating the seamless integration of VMware cloud technologies. Prior understanding of cloud computing, virtualization principles, VMware vSphere administration, vSAN, and NSX along with AWS cloud basics will be helpful.
