Abstract:
Examples described herein include systems and methods for providing dynamic serviceability for a software-defined data center (“SDDC”). An example method can include collecting data-center metrics from a management service that monitors the SDDC, filtering the data-center information based on a predetermined list of metrics provided by a partner entity, and translating the filtered data-center information into a partner-specific format requested by the partner entity. The example method can also include generating metadata associated with the translated data-center information and transmitting the metadata and translated data-center information to a partner site associated with the partner entity. If the partner site is not available, the method can include transmitting the information to a partner-accessible storage location and, when the partner site becomes available, identifying the storage location and failed attempt to deliver the information.
