Consumption and configuration

  • NSX-T has vastly improved the mechanisms for configuring and consuming it, whether by the traditional GUI method or by a direct REST API integration.  This open interface has allowed the platform to be consumed in an ‘Infrastructure as Code’ fashion by Terraform, Ansible, Java and Python. It also allows for deeper integration with cloud and Life Cycle Management platforms such as VMware vRealize Automation, Red Hat OpenShift, VMware VCF SDDC Manager, and of course VxBlock Central.

    The NSX-T Management and Control Plane configured on the VxBlock 1000 AMP will expose the following methods of consumption:

    • Enabling the ‘Infrastructure as Code’ use case
    • The ‘on the fly’ network and the security commission and decommission experience modern infrastructures and applications require
    • The code-based integration between the software stacks of the modern data center
