30 modules1.0 Configuration and Deplopment
Given a scenario,
- analyse system requirements to ensure successful system deployment
- execute a provided deployment plan
- analyse system requirements to determine if a given testing plan is appropriate
- analyse testing results to determine if the testing was successful in relation to given system requirements
- analyse sizing, subletting, and basic routing for a provided deployment of the virtual network
- analyse CPU and memory sizing for a provided deployment
- analyse the appropriate storage type and protection capability for a provided deployment
- analyse characteristics of the workload (storage, network, compute) to ensure a successful migration
- apply elements required to extend the infrastructure into a given cloud solution
2.0 Security
Given a scenario,
- apply security configurations and compliance controls to meet given cloud infrastructure requirements
- apply the appropriate ACL to the target objects to meet access requirements according to a security template

We are official partners with leading vendors and therefore, we're provided with certification changes and updates, which we can then implement in our course delivery at a very early stage. This feedback is then analysed in view of changes or discrepancies. We will then address the topics mentioned and have a panel of subject matter experts provide us with valuable suggestions for improvement and solutions.
