INE CCIE DC WORKBOOK FOR KIDS FREE

I tend to prefer to choose an instructor. I have a very good experience with all the main vendors and this is probably the most frequently asked question so far : “Which vendor did you use for your preparation”įirst I never really picked up a vendor. In order to do that I gave a look at CCIE Training vendors. I was almost ready to sit the CCIE DC Written exam but I decided to solidify all the theory I have gained throughout the year.

Introduction to SAN and System Networking.

Networked Storage Concept and Protocols.

INE CCIE DC WORKBOOK FOR KIDS FREE

To me these 2 books regarding Storage Area Networks are great free resources: I also read some free ebooks written by EMC and IBM.

NX-OS and Cisco Nexus Switching (Awesome Job by the authors ! Very nicely written).

I/O Consolidation in the Data Center. (Very good regarding FCOE).

Cisco UCS (a bit outdated but still nice to understand).

I don’t want to overemphasize but I really enjoyed every words of the book. All I can say is that Santana is as awesome as Doyle. If you have some Routing and Switching Skills, you probably read the very famous Routing TCP/IP Books ( Volume 1 covers IGP and Volume 2 covers BGP,Multicast and IPv6). I will give you my list very soon but first I would like to start with one of the best technical book I have read in my entire career.ĭata Center Virtualization Fundamentals written by Gustavo Santana is definitely the best Data Center book out there. I already mentioned before but I read LOTS and LOTS of books. What I am trying to say here, is that you have to be dedicated to this exam. After all, I can say that we are both CCIE RS-DC right now :).She deserves the title as much as I do … I am pretty sure that the CCIE exam is easier than taking care of the children. She even stayed at my parents home for several weeks to make my study time more efficient.

My wife was taking care of all 3 children 24/7 while I was studying. We had our 3rd baby 10 months ago and my daughter couldn’t sleep at night. My wife is the most supportive person I’ve ever met. If you have a family, you better have to have a very supportive wife/husband. 4 years after, this applies even greater today. In my previous CCIE Journey post I used this expression from Brian McGahan: “a CCIE journey is not a short race, it is a marathon”. As an expert that will face customers and other experts, you definitely have to dig very deep to understand what’s going on in every section of your infrastructure (Compute / Storage / Infrastructure). I immediately decided to jump into the DC field and start to climb the (infinite) ladder.Īt this time my DC infrastructure background wasn’t enough to pass the CCIE DC Written, I decided to spend a year reading books and solidify my knowledge.įirst and foremost the CCIE DC blueprint is like any CCIE DC, it is VERY large. The Data Center exams were released by Cisco and I always wanted to be involved in a Data Center infrastructure project.

I passed the CCIE DC lab exam one month ago and it was tough, long, hard, arduous, baffling, difficult, exacting, exhausting, hard (yeah I already used it on purpose 🙂 ), intractable,perplexing, puzzling, strenuous, thorny, troublesome, uphill.Īs soon as I failed my CCIE Voice exam, my frustration went so high and I needed a break from the Voice exam a little bit. I have shared my journey towards the CCIE RS in 2011 and I wanted to share it again with you. Here is a list (incomplete for sure) of the people that have blogged about their CCIE DC lab experience : There are many (very good) links about that specific subject but I wanted to give my own opinion as well :). In fact the title should be “My CCIE Journey – Act III” but I don’t want to use that one because I had a bad experience with the CCIE Voice lab exam 🙂
