VMware

The VMware vSphere Guest SDK provides read-only APIs for monitoring various virtual machine statistics. Management agents or other software running in the guest operating system on the virtual machine can use this data for reacting to changes at the application layer.

  • Available on Windows and Linux guest operating systems with VMware Tools installed.
  • This SDK supports C and C++ programming languages. You can support Java with wrapper classes, as in JNI.
