Virtualized Data Center and Cloud Infrastructure Planning and Design Course Description Overview Course Duration 5 Days
This course will cover in-depth details and considerations for planning, designing, and migrating to Virtualized Data Centers (VDC) and Cloud environments. This course will enable data center technology professionals to design VDC and Cloud infrastructures maintaining the most robust and elastic compute, network, and storage environments. The course will be premised on an ‘open’ architecture focusing on core components, principles, and technologies constituting both VDC and Cloud deployments utilizing best-of-breed EMC examples. This training is designed to be at the forefront of the changing IT landscape as traditional physical data centers evolve and morph into virtual entities and cloud environments.
