Compact VCF and VKS workflow briefs with one cloud touchpoint at a time

Each brief is a short five-minute read: understand the idea, expand the phase sequence, and fill the command line. Signed-in members can run the sequence live. Everyone else still gets the complete operator story in a compact format.

Simulate a VCF VM failover into EC2

Simulate a VCF workload failure, watch an EC2 target come online, and follow the app as the rehearsal shifts service from the on-prem lane to AWS and back again.

This rehearsal stays deliberately small. We begin on the VCF side, stand up a short-lived EC2 target, stage the app there, simulate the on-prem cut, prove the service is answering from AWS, and then tear the host back down. The goal is not a migration project. It is a compact failover story an operator can explain end to end in a few minutes.
