Abstract

Aspects of the embodiments are directed to forming a virtual machine management (VMM) domain in a heterogeneous datacenter. Aspects can include mapping an endpoint group to multiple VMM domains, each VMM domain associated with one or more virtual machine management systems of a single type that each share one or more management system characteristics; instantiating a virtual switch instance, the virtual switch instance associated with a the VMM domain; and instantiating the endpoint group mapped to the VMM domain as a network component associated with the virtual switch instance.
