This five-day expert-level course equips participants with skills ranging from routine VMware vSphere® 8 administration tasks to complex operations and troubleshooting. Using scenario-based labs (not simple step-by-step guides), students face real-world challenges similar to those in enterprise environments.

Scenarios are based on VMBeans, a fictitious company, allowing learners to build and scale virtual infrastructures while solving operational problems.

The course fully aligns with the VMware Certified Advanced Professional – Data Center Virtualization Deploy (VCAP-DCV Deploy) exam objectives.
