The Cloud Certified Professional (CCP)

program is a comprehensive curriculum

of course modules, exams and industry

certifications, providing IT professionals

with the opportunity to obtain formal

accreditation in recognition of

proficiency in specialized areas of

cloud computing technology

and practice.

The CCP curriculum is strictly

vendor-neutral and aligned with the cloud

computing industry as a whole. Its

academic coverage of contemporary

cloud computing topics ensures that

skills developed through study are

applicable to different commercial

cloud vendor platforms and

environments.

This program was developed by

best-selling author Thomas Erl in

cooperation with academic institutions

and industry experts, as well as the

involvement of members of the Cloud

Education & Credential Committee

(www.cloudcommittee.org). To receive

As a continuation of Modules 4 and 5, this lab-style

course provides a series of hands-on exercises that

enable participants to apply their knowledge of cloud

architecture, cloud computing mechanisms and cloud

computing design patterns to solve complex problems.

Participants are required to complete a number of

inter-related exercises based on a range of technology

architecture case study scenarios. To solve a given

problem, participants need to determine the correct

combination of cloud computing mechanisms, technologies

and design patterns in relation to different cloud

deployment and delivery models. Both individual and

group exercises are provided. Group exercises can

optionally be completed by individuals.

A hands-on lab during which participants apply the

patterns, concepts, practices, devices and mechanisms

covered in previous courses, in order to complete a

series of exercises that pertain to solving cloud storage

problems and creating cloud storage architectures.

Participants are required to complete a number of

inter-related exercises based on a range of cloud storage

technology architecture case study scenarios. To solve

a given problem, participants need to determine the

correct combination of cloud computing mechanisms,

technologies and design patterns. Both individual and

group exercises are provided. Group exercises can

optionally be completed by individuals.

This course builds upon Module 16 by exploring a range

of industry practices and management and design topics

for cloud-based contemporary virtualization environments,

breaking them down into design patterns and

technologies that can be combined to form common

cloud-based technology architectures and solutions.

The following primary topics are covered:

■

Connectivity and Accessibility (including Virtual Server and

Virtual Switch Isolation, NAT/Host and External Connectivity)

■

Performance and Capacity (including Direct I/O and Single

Root I/O Virtualization, LUN Access, NIC Teaming)

■

Scaling (including Elastic Resources, Load Balanced

Virtual Server and Virtual Switches, Resource Workload

Management)

■

Hosting (including different forms of Virtual Server and

Host Affinity/Non-Affinity, Memory Over-Committing, Power

Consumption Reduction)

■

Failover and Recovery (including Resource Pooling and

Reservation, Auto Crash Recovery, Hypervisor Clustering,

Zero Downtime)

■

Migration and Relocation (including Cross-Hypervisor

Workload Mobility, Non-Disruptive Service Relocation,

Persistent Virtual Network Configuration, Virtual Server

Folder Migration, Virtual Disk Splitting, Stateless Hypervisor)
