EMC Education Services has invested on addressing the widening knowledge gap in the industry - to enable non-EMC users, as well as university students, to take advantage of the storage technology “open” curriculum to build a successful career in this high-growth industry.
As a step towards addressing the growing storage skill gap, Information Storage and Management course was launched. Over the years, the industry has transformed from a classical to virtualized to cloud environments, and so have the technologies enabling them. Keeping in mind these changes , EMC recently updated the course and launched a new version titled Information Storage and Management v2.
The course gives an insight into data center key elements, intelligent storage systems, storage networking technologies, and various business continuity options – along with security and management of a storage infrastructure.
