We also have a number of new TAM Blogs Posts to bring to your attention on http://blogs.vmware.com/tam/
Improve vRealize Orchestrator Workflows for Efficiency and Scalability
Are you struggling to organize your vRealize scripts or workflows? Ted Spinks—VMware's TAM Tech Lead for Cloud Automation Portfolio—shows you techniques to maximize efficiency and scalability with scripts and workflows. The blog addresses some handy tips, like:
• How multiple scripts within a workflow can share connections to avoid over-consumption
• Applying these techniques to the vSphere Tagging use case addressed in an earlier Cloud Management blog post
• Bonus integration techniques for vRealize Automation
• Setting up error handling to prevent orphaned PS Sessions and vCenter connections from causing issues
Better Together: VMware Hands-On Labs and Technical Account Managers
I've been traveling the Midwest lately speaking at VMUGs, USERCons, and vForum events. It's been a whirlwind few months talking to many people and answering questions on various topics, such as, “What's new with VMware vSphere 6?” “What are some new possibilities with technologies like VMware NSX and VMware vRealize Automation?” And—most of all—trying to answer the question, "How does a person keep up with all this new technology?" It certainly isn't easy, but there are tools available that can help. One such tool I've been amazingly lucky to be a part of has been VMware Hands-On Labs (HOLs). In my travels I've been completely amazed at how many people are not yet aware of this really awesome tool.
Have a fantastic week, please don’t forget to check the latest KB articles!
