vPoller - Distributed vSphere API Proxy¶

vPoller is a distributed VMware vSphere API Proxy, designed for discovering and polling of vSphere objects.

It uses the VMware vSphere API in order to perform discovery and polling of vSphere objects.

vPoller uses the ZeroMQ messaging library for distributing tasks to workers and load balancing of client requests.

vPoller can be integrated with other systems, which require access to vSphere objects, but do not have native support for it.

Possible scenarios where vPoller could be used is integration with monitoring systems as part of the discovery and polling process in order to provide monitoring of your VMware vSphere environment.

vPoller has been tested with VMware vSphere 5.x and with very limited testing on vSphere 4.x

vPoller is Open Source and licensed under the BSD License.
