An excellent training about It Certification

VMware HCI Master Specialist

The VMware Certified Master Specialist HCI 2021 certification validates an earner’s ability to deploy and manage a software-defined storage solution with VMware vSAN. Badge earners have an understanding of vSAN architecture, features and use cases, and interoperability with VMware vSphere. The minimally qualified candidate will have achieved VCP-DCV and vSAN Specialist certification. Candidates should have 1 year of experience designing, configuring, managing, and upgrading VMware HCI environments. Candidates should be familiar with deployment and administration of VMs using Storage Policy-Based Management. Candidates should have intermediate knowledge of storage, storage hardware, monitoring, and remediation topics, as well as basic networking and security knowledge and should have completed the VMware vSAN: Deploy and Manage training.
