Hello Everyone,
In this blog post, I will share information about another component of Microsoft Private Cloud known as Service Provider Foundation.
Service Provider Foundation (SPF) is part of Orchestrator setup which install extensible OData web service on the machine which helps in communicating System Center Virtual Machine Manager with Multi-tenant portal of Microsoft known as Windows Azure Pack (WAP - Private Cloud).
This helps in configuring multi-tenant self service portal which is integrated with IAAS capabilities using system centre components.
