The primary use case is for virtual machine (VM) deployment, configuration of Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS), prioritizing products on VMs, and using add-on devices such as hardware, network, and graphics cards. It's mainly used for high-priority tasks and performance management within VMware vSphere and VMware vCenter environments.
At the starting phase of my career, I dealt with VMware vCenter for multiple solution propositions for clients. My present company has multiple vCenters deployed across several countries, including UK, Australia, Ashburn in the US and also in Pakistan. I personally manage multiple vCenters and hosts, I deal with more than 200 hosts that need to be managed. Our company is a huge client of VMware vCenter.

You use vCenter in data center operations as the core of your investment infrastructure, coordinating products like NSX, HSL, HSAX, and Cyber Recovery Manager.
We use the product for managing a large-scale virtualized infrastructure, specifically overseeing ten ESXi hosts. It helps us upgrade the databases for all the hosts through one console. It includes virtual machine creation to packet updates, and with additional tools like vCenter Lifecycle Manager, we can effortlessly handle patches and host migrations.
As a cloud service provider, we offer infrastructure as a service using VMware components. To centrally manage all ESXi servers, we use vCenter. Its features, such as high availability (HA), Distributed Resource Scheduler (DRS), and vMotion, make vCenter a unique and valuable product. These features significantly aid my team in delivering superior services to our customers. As a cloud architect, I'm involved in designing and implementing various solutions, mainly with VMware for virtualization from the computing perspective. This includes VMware vCenter, ESXi, VROps, vRealize Automation (vRA), and NSX for networking solutions. My team also works on storage, backup, and security. I also have experience with VMware vRealize Automation (VRA), which integrates with Center. In the past, my team deployed virtual machines for our customers because we couldn't offer a self-service portal or automation solutions. With vRealize Automation, we're not only able to automate tasks but also manage vCenter resources efficiently. It allows us to assign resources to customers as needed and provide them with a self-service portal. Now, customers can complete tasks independently thanks to automation and workflows in VRA, significantly reducing the need for direct support from my team.
The product has broad use cases. Our customers use it for mission-critical production environments, general hosting, or for private cloud environments,
