Re: OT: CCDE - how to study and chances to pass it

Problem with DC is that it's a rapidly moving target as far as reality
is concerned! And it's a volatile one in terms of what it means to
everyone!

And there's many moving pieces like where to draw the line between the
Cisco-esque part and the things you know you'll need!

In the Cisco specializations for DC/UCS stuff, you'll find that having a
VMWare VCP is part of the required process. So how far do you bring
that into the "expert" cert?

While it's high on my list of "interesting" things and stuff to play
with, it's not nearly as high when it comes to desiring any
certifications around it....

Just my two cents on the subject!
