Cloud Foundation automates the installation of the entire VMware software components as the rack is installed and powered-on, and the networking is enabled. SDDC Manager leverages its knowledge of the hardware details and user-provided configuration details (such as DNS, IP address pool, and so on) to initialize the rack. This way, it saves a lot of time and prevents manual errors and repeated tasks. These activities include provisioning of workloads, automated provisioning of networks, allocation of resources based on service needs, and provisioning of end points. It helps the customer start production and the provisioning of resources for end users.
