How to Get the Most Out of Your VMware Tools

In recent years, new technical content has primarily focused on the latest technologies such as Kubernetes, Terraform, serverless, and the latest public cloud services. Yet millions of VMware installations are here to stay, supporting the hybrid cloud strategy adopted by large enterprises.

Verified Market Research forecasts that the global hybrid cloud market will grow 22.8% annually to reach $283B by 2027. Many have chosen a hybrid cloud strategy due to security and compliance reasons, while some are migrating infrastructure back to data centers to save money.

Meanwhile, every month hundreds of thousands of searches are typed in Google by VMware administrators seeking answers to configuration challenges ranging from network settings and upgrades to automation, load balancing, and high availability.

Meeting the Needs of the VMware Community

With that in mind, we created The Complete Guide to VMware Administration. We have devoted this VMware administration guide to the most commonly asked questions and commissioned senior practitioners to share their practical knowledge gained over the years to help new administrators solve everyday configuration challenges.

So far we have published guides to VMware NSX, VMware Distributed Resource Scheduler, VMware High Availability, and VMware Storage. We have a guide coming very soon about VMware Load Balancing, and much more to come. We look forward to sharing more of our knowledge with you.

If there are other areas you’d like to see us cover around VMware, feel free to reach out to us at sales@cloudbolt.io.

We’re here to help you anywhere on your hybrid and multi-cloud journey. Request a demo today.
