Great instructional book

Great instructional book, easy to follow. I do wish the book would cover more in-depth complex topics such as policy writing.

Its pretty good for basic stuff, was hoping that there would be more depth and found it lacking.

A must if you want or need to learn how use vRealize Orchestrator

Reviewed in the United States on July 4, 2015

Orchestration in VMware environments is something still not so well explored and explained.
Historically there was only vCenter Orchestrator from one side (if you are looking something at high level) and scripting from the other (if you know PowerShell or other scripting languages). Now for the first part there is vRealize Automation, but still the Orchestrator part could be necessary (for example to use vRealize Automation with VMware NSX).
The book “VMware vRealize Orchestrator Cookbook” has the ambition purpose to explain how to master the configuration, programming, and interaction of plugins with Orchestrator to efficiently automate your VMware infrastructure.
The preface is really well done with a useful paragraph on how reading this book in the right way and a simple image that explain how much important is the Orchestrator in all the automation solutions of VMware (and also 3rd part solutions).
This book include only few chapters:
Chapter 1, Installing and Configuring Orchestrator, shows in a simple way how to install, configure, and access the various Orchestrator installation types. Well done (although there are already good online resource that covers this aspects).
Chapter 2, Optimizing Orchestrator Configuration, dives into more specialized setups, such as clusters, and how to tune the Orchestrator appliance. This is usually more complex than the installation part and not so well covered by on-line resources. In this book is well explained.
Chapter 3, Visual Programming, introduces and dives into the visual programming of Orchestrator. A really good overview on how powerful is Orchestrator, understandably also by people that have never see or use it. Probably the best part of the book.
Chapter 4, Working with Plugins, showcases how to use the different plugins of Orchestrator with detailed examples. This part become more technical and deep, but the examples (really good and well done) help a lot.
Chapter 5, Basic Orchestrator Operations, teaches you how to operate Orchestrator, working with user management, packages, and more.
Chapter 6, Advanced Operations, dives into more advanced operations such as language packs, resources, and policies.
Chapter 7, Working with VMware Infrastructure, teaches you how to automate the vSphere infrastructure as well as use Orchestrator workflows in vRealize Orchestrator. This part will apply all what you have learn on the basics of Orchestrator to a VMware environment, again with several useful examples.
So finally a book that maintain the promise of the title and the purpose of it. In little less than 400 good pages a must if you plan to use vRealize Orchestrator or tools that require it.

A very good book for the anyone who needs to get things done.

Reviewed in the United States on July 16, 2015

The second best thing to have after hands on experience is someone else's experience distilled in a book. As with any cookbook, is focuses is on how to do stuff rather than why, which is great when you're the guy who need to get things done. This book covers a wide range of IT automation scenarios with easy to understand examples.

Oddly, in the Kindle version I had problems configuring the font size. When every other ebook looks nice on my Kindle, this one has small fonts. Never had this kind of issue with any other ebook, and that's the only reason for giving it four stars.

Five Starts - Great book to have in your toolkit

Reviewed in the United States on July 31, 2015

The VMware vRealize Orchestrator Cookbook is a great read for people that want to automate routine task in their vSphere environment. This book not only covers how to use vRO, but also goes into integrating it with vRA to have an extensive automation solution. The book jumps right into basic workflows and workflow constructs in Chapter 3, I found the examples provided in the book were very clear and intuitive, and I was able to run them in my lab environment and learn how to create my own orchestrations.In Chapter 4, there are some great samples of working with SQL plugins that I found very helpful, especially using a SQL query and sending the results to a CSV file. vRealize Orchestrator is an often overlooked tool because it can be viewed as complex, this breaks it down in simple terms and really makes vRO approachable.

If you are interested in automating routine tasks in the datacenter, this is a great book to have on your desk.
