The Azure endpoint will include:

Additionally, the ability to manage the deployment life cycle, including start, stop, restart and delete are possible via the endpoint.
Support for containers in vRealize Automation 7.2 will allow developers and application teams to accelerate application delivery. vRealize Automation 7.2 leverages Admiral, a highly scalable and very lightweight container management platform to deploy and manage containers to Docker hosts and through a private beta, virtual container hosts on VMware vSphere Integrated Containers. Developers will be able to provision container hosts from the vRealize Automation service catalog as well as model containerized applications using unified service blueprints or Docker Compose.
Application teams will have the ability to build hybrid deployments consisting of VMs and containers. Cloud administrators will be able to manage container hosts and apply governance to their usage including capacity quotas or approval workflows. vRealize Automation 7.2 is well suited for organizations with existing apps while also modernizing them via the adoption of micro services and a cloud-native architecture.
