Open and Extensible: Community Content on VMware Solution Exchange

Hi all,

We are excited to inform you of an expansion to the VMware Solution Exchange (VSX) platform, where VMware will reference community developed content for vRealize Orchestrator, Operations Manager and Log Insight on the VMware Solution Exchange web site. This expansion to the program is to help accelerate innovation within our end user and professional development communities. This newly added VMware Solution Exchange community program is designed to be complimentary to vmware communities. Community categories will include basic automation workflows, custom dashboards, and/or simple filtering/expression with graphical file log representations.  VMware will not validate or support the content referenced. VMware is primarily offering a portal in which end users can search for content, to the products listed above, both partner developed and community developed.


The good news for the partner community is that they can develop simple content and have pointers from VMware Solution Exchange to this content; moreover, customers can make extensions to partner content with community references as well. VMware will begin listing community content in the following vRealize product areas (based on those that have public SDK or in-product extensibility such as Log Insight (Content Packs), Orchestrator (Plug-ins & Workflow Packages), Automation 6.2 (Lifecycle Actions, Custom ASD Services & API Integrations and Cloudclient scripts) and the Operations 6.0 (Dashboards, View, Reports, Alerts Definitions, Symptoms, Recommendations and Super Metrics).


This is a great opportunity for the individual developers to list and access crowd sourced content on VSX in addition to the VMware certified content.

Please refer to the blog for more details.

Will the sub-community posts roll-up to this parent community? If that is not the case, I can see those posts getting less attention as they'll only be seen by folks monitoring those specific areas.

If you find this or any other answer useful please mark the answer as correct or helpful.

Mark - we want to keep the sub-community related discussions (which are content specific) separate from the product related discussions. However, we can periodically roll them up for better visibility.

Appreciate your suggestions.

thanks
