During this five-day course, you focus on installing, configuring, and managing VMware Aria Automation 8.10™ on-premises systems. You learn how it can be used to automate the delivery of virtual machines, applications, and personalized IT services across different data centers and hybrid cloud environments. The course covers how VMware Aria Automation Consumption™ can aggregate content in native formats from multiple clouds and platforms into a common catalog. This course also covers interfacing VMware Aria Automation with other systems using VMware Aria Orchestrator and how to use VMware Aria Automation to manage Kubernetes systems and leverage other systems. In this course, you will use VMware Aria Automation Config™ as a configuration management tool.
