Course Overview

The Implementing and Operating Cisco Data Center Core Technologies course teaches you to implement data center local area networks (LANs) and storage area networks (SANs) and compute using Cisco Nexus Switches, Cisco MDS Switches, Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS) B-Series Blade Servers, and Cisco UCS C-Series Rack Servers. You will also learn the essentials of automation and security in data centers. The training provides rich, hands-on experience with deploying, securing, operating, and maintaining Cisco data center networking, storage, and computing.The course aslo helps you to prepare for the Cisco CCNP Data Center and CCIE Data Center certifications and for advanced-level data center roles.
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.
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 receive at the beginning of the course and should be part of your preparation for the exam.
This course is worth 64 Continuing Education (CE) credits towards recertification.
