Next on the line is Service Provider Foundation which also part of Orchestrator.
We have to install some prerequisites:
We now have the option to generate self-signed certificate trough the installation:
Usage endpoint now can be installed trough the installer:
In SPF 2012 R2 there are a lot of more APIs for VMM.
There is another role in the Orchestrator installation media but I hadn’t resources to install it so I will just show you the first installation screens. This new role is Service Reporting which is like a Data Warehouse for hosting providers from which they can get data for billing Tenants.

Small improvements on the installation experience of SPF by adding Usage endpoint installation and generating self-signed certificate.
