Foreword
When Scott and Chris approached me to write a foreword for their book, I jumped
on it right away. As stated in my book, VMware vRealize Operations Performance and
Capacity Management, Packt Publishing, I excluded a lot of areas in order to stay within
the self-imposed page limit. They have read my book, and it gives me sheer joy as an
author when another author takes your work and then complements it well. Having
read the nal product, I am in fact going to change the strategy for my second
edition. I am going to refer to this book a lot as they have explained the concepts
better than I did. These are indeed "the missing chapters" in my book!
I highly recommend this book to you. Whether you are new to vRealize Operations,
or you have a large scale deployment, there is something for you. The book covers
the product top-down. I have read the vRealize Operations manuals and white
papers, and I think this book stands out. It stands out not because the manuals are
not good, but because the book was written by practitioners and eld personnel.
Just like my book, it was born at the customer's site with real-world input. Scott and
Chris have done numerous vRealize Operations implementations, and the content of
this book reects their valuable experience.
Speaking about the product of this book, vRealize Operations has gained the
acceptance of many customers globally. It has also gained industry acceptance, as you
can see from the many management packs provided by partners. It has evolved from
a vSphere-centric management tool to an overall SDDC management tool. vRealize
Operations is also undergoing improvement every year. By the time you read this
book, there is a good chance that an updated release will be out. The good thing is
that the foundation set in this book is required for you to master the new version.
I am certainly glad to see that both the books are published by the same publisher,
as this makes future collaboration easier. Together with many bloggers and
practitioners out there, we can make a signicant contribution toward a great
vRealize Operations deployment.
