Some days, my work in my graduate program makes me so happy. Today, I learned that “What’s on de rail for de lizard?” translates from Harlem Slang as “Suggestions for moral turpitude?” Henceforth, I shall enter rooms with this question. #vcfa #lovewhatyoudo #writing #writingcommunity

DSM 9.0.1 – Using VCFA Blueprints to provision databases
In my previous post, I showed how the VCF Consumption CLI could be used to provision a MySQL database when Data Services Manager is integrated with VCF Automation. We could use the same VCF Consumption CLI to provision Postgres databases also. However, I wanted to show you another way that databases could be provisioned using blueprints in VCF Automation (VCFA). Readers may find this useful as it will allow you to track MySQL database instances provisioned via VCF Automation, even though the MySQL Data Service Policy and MySQL databases are not currently plumbed up into the VCFA UI (his will be added in a future release).

In Data Services Manager 9.0.1, we decided to remove the ability to create MySQL Data Service Policies (DSP) from VCF Automation (VCFA) UI until we can also provision MySQL databases end-to-end. Even though you could create a Data Service Policy via the UI in VCFA 9.0/DSM 9.0, you still had to use the API to create the database. We decided this might be a little confusing, so we disabled the MySQL DSP step in the UI for now and will re-enable it when we can provide the ability to create both MySQL DSP and MySQL database.

Beauty of Automation!
Something that would easily take 10, 20 and maybe even 30min for some, all done in under 30secs!

VCFA residencies happen twice per year on the CalArts campus AND online. For the past several semesters I've done residency online & it's a lovely, robust experience with lots of strong community vibes. There are Cloud-only events (workshop, seminars) & hybrid events with campus folk (lectures, etc)
