DevOps for VMware® Administrators is the first book focused on using DevOps tools and practices with VMware technologies. The authors introduce high-value tools from third parties and VMware itself, and guide you through using them to improve the performance of all your virtualized systems and applications. You’ll walk through automating and optimizing configuration management, provisioning, log management, continuous integration, and more. The authors also offer step-by-step coverage of deploying and managing applications at scale with Docker containers and Google Kubernetes. They conclude with an up-to-the-minute discussion of VMware’s newest DevOps initiatives, including VMware vRealize Automation and VMware vRealize Code Stream. Coverage includes • Understanding the challenges that DevOps tools and practices can help VMware administrators to solve • Using Vagrant to quickly deploy Dev and Test environments that match production system specifications • Writing Chef “recipes” that streamline server configuration and maintenance • Simplifying Unix/Linux configuration management and orchestration with Ansible • Implementing Docker containers for faster and easier application management • Automating provisioning across the full lifecycle with Razor • Integrating Microsoft PowerShell Desired State Configuration (DSC) and VMware PowerCLI to automate key Windows Server and vSphere VM admin tasks • Using Puppet to automate infrastructure provisioning, configuration, orchestration, and reporting • Supercharging log management with ELK (Elasticsearch, Logstash, Kibana) • Supporting DevOps source code management with Git and continuous integration practices with Jenkins • Achieving continuous integration, delivery, and deployment with VMware’s vRealize Code Stream

Over 110 effective recipes to help you build and operate OpenStack cloud computing, storage, networking, and automation About This Book <ul>
<li>Explore many new features of OpenStack's Juno and Kilo releases</li> <li>Install, configure, and administer core projects with the help of OpenStack Object Storage, Block Storage, and Neutron Networking services</li> <li>Harness the abilities of experienced OpenStack administrators and architects, and run your own private cloud successfully</li> <li>Practical, real-world examples of each service and an accompanying Vagrant environment that helps you learn quickly</li> </ul>
 In Detail OpenStack Open Source software is one of the most used cloud infrastructures to support software development and big data analysis. It is developed by a thriving community of individual developers from around the globe and backed by most of the leading players in the cloud space today. It is simple to implement, massively scalable, and can store a large pool of data and networking resources. OpenStack has a strong ecosystem that helps you provision your cloud storage needs. Add OpenStack's enterprise features to reduce the cost of your business. This book will show you the steps to build up a private cloud environment. At the beginning, you'll discover the uses of cloud services such as the identity service, image service, and compute service. You'll dive into Neutron, the OpenStack Networking service, and get your hands dirty with configuring ML2, networks, routers, and Distributed Virtual Routers. You'll then gather more expert knowledge on OpenStack cloud computing by managing your cloud's security and migration. After that, we delve in to OpenStack Object storage and how to manage servers and work with objects, cluster, and storage functionalities. Also, as you go deeper into the realm of OpenStack, you'll learn practical examples of Block storage, LBaaS, and FWaaS: installation and configuration covered ground up. Finally, you will learn OpenStack dashboard, Ansible and Foreman, Keystone, and other interesting topics. What You Will Learn <ul>
<li>Understand, install, configure, and manage Nova―the OpenStack Cloud Compute resource</li> <li>Configure ML2, networks, routers, and Distributed Virtual Routers with Neutron</li> <li>Use and secure Keystone, the OpenStack Authentication service</li> <li>Install and set up Swift and Container Replication between datacenters</li> <li>Gain hands-on experience and familiarity with Horizon, the OpenStack Dashboard user interface</li> <li>Automate complete solutions with our recipes on Heat, the OpenStack Orchestration service</li> <li>Use Ansible and Foreman to automate OpenStack installations successfully</li> <li>Follow practical advice and examples to run OpenStack in production</li> </ul>
 Who This Book Is For This book is aimed at cloud system engineers, system administrators, and technical architects who are moving from a virtualized environment to cloud environments. This book assumes that you are familiar with cloud computing platforms, and have knowledge of virtualization, networking, and managing Linux environments. Style and approach Clear, step-by-step instructions coupled with practical and applicable recipes that'll enable you to use and implement the latest features of OpenStack.
