思科早前在自己官方网站上公布了一则消息,关于在2012年9月份正式启用CCIE Data Center认证,这将是CCIE的一个新的方向,原文如下:
Cisco announced today that a new expert-level certification for data center professionals will be available starting September 2012. This expert-level certification validates a candidate’s expert knowledge of implementing and troubleshooting complex data center networks. The program offers candidates the knowledge and skills required to design, implement, operate, monitor, and troubleshoot complex data center networks. Products tested in this certification include Cisco Catalyst 3750, MDS 9222i, Nexus 7009, 5548, 2232, 1000v and Cisco Unified Computing System (UCS), and Cisco Application Control Engine Appliance.
这个认证将网络和系统技术结合在一起,将是对广大网络工程师的一个新的考验。CCIE DC要求工程师具有对复杂数据中心网络进行设计,实施,操作,监控和排错的能力,具体能力可以参见下表:
