VMware Workforce Mobility certifications

Reading Time: < 1 minute

As you can notice in the VMware’s certifications planner, the End User Computing (EUC) path has slightly changed in some names: the related VCDX (not yet available) is simple called VCDX-Desktop (and no more VCDX-DT) and the same apply for VCP-Desktop (funny that in other point is still called VCP-DT).

Remember also that the related VCP has two different path (as all other VCPs): one is the VCP-Desktop exam (that cover also the vSphere part) and one is VMware View exam.

But the interesting aspect is the “Workforce Mobility” related to new Associate level (VCA): will this the new pattern for the entire EUC path?

It include VMware Horizon View, Mirage, Workspace and of course the vSphere part (including networking and storage parts) so it’s more complete compared to other certification that are actually related only on VMware Horizon View (and of course VMware vSphere).

So let’s see if we will see in the (close) future some VCP-WM (and maybe VCAPs) exams to cover the entire Horizon Suite.

Now that both Microsoft and VMware have officially announced the new released of their virtualization products it’s possible make an homogenous comparison between Hyper-V 2012 R2 (the fourth generation of Hyper-V) and vSphere 5.5.

VMware vSphere 5.5 introduces several news and scalability improvements, on the other side Microsoft Hyper-V 2012 R2 consolidate its features and improve what was already existing in the 2012 version, with a limited (but significant) new features. For example now, finally, some VMware old date features are mainstream also in Hyper-V, like VM hot cloning, hot disk resize (in this case also with the possibility to reduce the size).

With the announce of the new VMware vCloud Suite 5.5, there are some new features and also several improvements. We have already discuss about the new limits of VMware vSphere 5.5, let’s consider the other aspects.

First we have to say that, as usually, most of the new features or technologies are almost related to the Enterprise Plus edition… that means no significant changes for the SMB segment.

Editions remain the same of vSphere 5 and the comparison tables are already updated to the new version. Also the Licensing, Pricing and Packaging document has been updated.

VMworld 2013 EU: Why attend

There is only 1 month left until the European edition of VMworld 2013 and the main reason on why attend at this event is really simple: if you have lost the US edition you cannot lost also this one :)

Another reason, but only for VMware partners, is that the first day (Monday) is a dedicated Partner Day. It will consist in keynotes, focused breakout sessions covering VMware products, pricing and programs, and network with peers. Considering the lack of a real European VMware Partner Exchange, this is a good partner’s momentum.
