CISCO - DCUCD Data Center Unified Computing Design

KURSZIEL
CISCO - DCUCD Data Center Unified Computing Design: This course is intended for system engineers who need to design Cisco Unified Computing System solutions.Kursziele
The goal of the DCUCD 3.0 curriculum is to enable engineers to design scalable, reliable, and intelligent Data Center Unified Computing solutions based on Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS), Cisco Nexus family switches, Catalyst 6500 in Virtual Switching System (VSS), MDS family SAN switches with NX-OS, Data Center Network Manager (DCNM) and MDS Fabric Manager configuration and management applications, VMware server virtualization products, and Linux and Microsoft Windows operating system.
Topics covered in this course include performance characteristics, recommended reconnaissance and analysis tools, sizing, migration process, design success criteria, and ROI calculations. This course also includes hands-on labs to allow you to become familiar with the UCS environment and key concepts.
Course Benefits

• Describe Cisco data center virtualization solutions
• Identify the Cisco services available to design, install and maintain a Cisco virtualized data center
• Evaluate an existing data center infrastructure in light of a Cisco data center virtualization solution
• List the most relevant technical data points to identify in converting an existing data center to a Cisco virtualized data center
• Determine the requirements needed to create a Cisco data center virtualization solution
• Given a particular set of data center business drivers, identify the success criteria for a Cisco virtualized data center solution design
• Design a Cisco data center virtualization solution based on determined requirements
• Given a particular data center virtualization project, identify the Cisco data center virtualization network technologies employed
