VMware vRealize Suite Lifecycle Manager (vRSLCM) is the latest addition to the vRealize Suite and is now part of vCloud/vRealize Suite 2017.
vRealize Suite is a collection of products that cater different needs from Self-Service (vRealize Automation), orchestration and automation (vRealize Orchestrator) to operation and analytics (vRealize Operations and vRealize Log Insight). All of these products are tightly integrated and delivers a comprehensive cloud management platform.
This extensive compatibility’s come at a cost, deploying and operating a vRealize Suite environment is time consuming and error prone due to the large number of servers and manual configuration needed.
In the last few versions there was a huge improvement, but in my opinion – vRSLCM is the solution for all of this problem (VMware Gods and Product Managers – please don’t prove me wrong).
