The Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies course helps you prepare for the Cisco CCNP Data Center and CCIE Data Center certifications and for advanced-level data center roles. Learn to master the skills and technologies you need to implement data center compute, LAN and SAN infrastructures. Understand the essentials of automation and security in data centers. Gain hands-on experience with deploying, securing, operating, and maintaining Cisco data center infrastructures including: Cisco MDS Switches and Cisco Nexus Switches; Cisco Unified Computing System™ (Cisco UCS®) B-Series Blade Servers, and Cisco UCS C-Series Rack Servers.

Please note that this course is a combination of Instructor-Led and Self-Paced Study - 5 days in the classroom and approx 3 days of self study. The self-study content will be provided as part of the digital courseware that you recieve at the beginning of the course and should be part of your preparation for the exam.

This course will help you:

    Gain experience implementing, securing and automating network, compute, and storage infrastructure

    Gain knowledge and skills through Cisco’s unique combination of lessons and hands-on practice using enterprise-grade Cisco learning technologies, data center equipment, and software

    Qualify for professional and expert-level job roles in the high-demand area of enterprise-class data center environments

    Prepare to take the 350-601 Implementing Cisco Data Center Core Technologies (DCCOR)exam.

This course is worth 64 Continuing Education (CE) credits towards recertification.
