Cisco and NetApp FlexPod Specialist (FLEXPOD) (Certification)

Het gebruik van FlexPod heeft consequenties voor de manier waarop de beheerafdeling wordt ingericht. Wat moet een organisatie doen om ervoor te zorgen dat beheerders klaar zijn voor deze nieuwe manier van werken? Onze collega Kees Boot schreef er een blog over: Hoe FlexPod de denk- en werkwijze van de beheerafdeling verandert

FlexPod solutions combine storage, networking, and server components into a flexible architecture that services a variety of business workloads. FlexPod solutions not only speed the deployment of infrastructure and business-critical applications, but also reduce cost, complexity, and risk. We offer two Cisco and NetApp FlexPod certifications: FlexPod Design Specialist and FlexPod Implementation and Administration Specialist.

FlexPod Certification Requirements
The FlexPod Design exam (NS0-170 or 500-170 FPDESIGN) and the FlexPod Implementation and Administration exam (NS0-171 or 500-171 FPIMPADM) are each 60-minute exams that test system engineers on their knowledge of the FlexPod solution. These exams test a candidate’s knowledge of the tools and standards for assessing computing solution performance characteristics and requirements. The exams also test a candidate’s knowledge of the hardware components associated with the FlexPod solution and the process for selecting proper hardware for a given set of requirements.

Logos and certificates will be granted to those individuals who achieve FlexPod Specialist certification.
