This chapter will help you to understand these fundamental design concepts. In the following, we will focus on the different components as well as on security aspects. For the most part, this chapter deals with describing the building blocks within a vRealize Automation environment. Afterwards, it will end up with discussing a couple of further design aspects. This chapter will only focus on design issues. The implementation itself will be described in the following chapters. 6.1 vRealize Automation Layers Traditionally, one of the key requ...
