What is VCF Management Services
VCF management services are all about bringing a unified, consistent experience to VMware Cloud Foundation by packing its core platform services into one shared framework. Instead of juggling a million moving parts, it simplifies how you deploy, consume, manage, and scale your VCF components.
Because every setup is a little different, there is no one-size-fits-all approach. It supports multiple Management Services Models that offer different levels of availability. When you’re standing up a new VCF instance, you choose the component and deployment models that best match your specific needs and uptime requirements.
VCF Management Services Deployment: Simple vs High Availability
Simple VCF Management Services Model – For Test/PoC (1 x control Plane Node, 3 x worker Node)
High Availability VCF Management Services Model For Production (3 x control Plane Node, 3 x worker Node)
VCF Management Services Components
VMware Cloud Foundation (VCF) Management Services models determine how management components are deployed across data centres. They are divided into Fleet-level (global management) and Instance-level (local management) architectures, supporting both the initial VCF instance and additional environments.
