This intermediate Cisco Data Center Storage training prepares learners to plan, install, upgrade or improve a data center's data storage capacity with Cisco technologies and services.
Storage solutions in a data center are much more than the trunk of a car or the caboose of a train. If you were to reduce the complex, interconnected web of data center storage capabilities as places to put data until you need it would not only miss the point of data center storage, it would seriously diminish the value and processing potential of the entire infrastructure.
This Cisco Data Center Storage training illustrates the decisions that network administrators have to make early in the planning phase and carry out well after installation. This course can help you to master the tools and technologies Cisco makes available for making full use of data and storing it in the best way possible.
For anyone who manages their Cisco training, this Cisco training can be used to onboard new network administrators, curated into individual or team training plans, or as a Cisco reference resource.
