The VMware Adapter for SAP Landscape Management just got better and provides now a connector for vRealize Automation 1.1!
Our Integrated Systems Business Unit, just released the VMware Adapter for SAP Landscape Management – Connector for vRealize Automation 1.1.
Why is this important?
The vLA Connector for vRealize Automation feature allows SAP and VMware admins to publish SAP systems to vRealize Automation so that SAP Users can consume these contents themselves directly from vRealize Automation.
The new connector augments the automation power of VMware Adapter for SAP Landscape Management 1.4.1, which leverages capabilities of SAP Landscape Management (LaMa) and VMware SDDC, and empowers SAP customers to provision and manage SAP application seamlessly.
How does it work?
The Connector instantiates blueprints from so called Gold Masters and the necessary workflows for deployment and imports them into VMware vRealize Automation and VMware vRealize Orchestrator, respectively. The said blueprints are then entitled and made available to the end users in the vRA service catalog. At any time in future, vRA end users with requisite permission can then select the said blueprint for deployment from the service catalog, furnish the requested values and be able to create a new Verified SAP system based on the said GM. This process is called instantiating the Gold Master.
This version of the VMware Adapter for SAP Landscape Management – Connector for vRealize Automation (VRA Connector) provides a command line client that utilizes several APIs (the Solutions Automation [SA-API], vRealize Automation, and vRealize Orchestrator) to automate and manage the conversion of SA-API Gold Masters to vRealize Automation XaaS Blueprints.
