[Disclosure, I currently work for VMware] On the VMware side, what kind of documentation are you looking for, and what kind of capabilities are you looking to expose? VMware has a really broad portfolio and it can be complex for someone to get started if they are not already familiar with what is available. If you want to get hands-on quickly to see what capabilities are available I'd recommend trying out the free "Hands-on labs" available here - http://labs.hol.vmware.com/HOL/catalogs/catalog/681 http://labs.hol.vmware.com/HOL/catalogs/catalog/681 It may be useful to understand a bit of the high-level overview of which components play in the portfolio. Probably key items to look at are: 1. vSphere (comprised of vCenter and ESXi for compute virtualization) 2.a. Either, vRealize suite (primarily vRealize Automation) 2.b. Or, vSphere Integrated OpenStack (if you want to use OpenStack instead of vRealize) API docs are located on https://code.vmware.com https://code.vmware.com though if you don't have a mental model of the system already it could be somewhat complex to follow along unaided.
