On first of January, 2016 I have decided to go and pursue my Data Center Certification. Cisco is my best chose to do it because I am really admire what they are doing with their certifications and path they have created for us to study.
I have to say that i am already holding CCIE Service Provider but I have to say that it doesn't make any difference in my journey and not making the study easier for sure.
I passed CCNA DC two exams last year and learned a LOT about data center technologies that i wasn't aware before form the networking world. I have to say it was completely new for me, almost 90% of technologies that we "networking" engineers are never exposed too.
I thought to my self and made a decision to take the long path for the CCIE DC (CCNA, CCNP and then CCIE) since all these technologies, protocols are new to me and I unfortunately I don't have an access to it on daily basis so the books and study materials are my best friend now....
Now my path includes:
