HP ATA – Cloud

Hi my colleagues, friends and followers.

Lets talk about the fourth HP ATA program, which is one of the most interesting: of course we are talking about cloud.

The HP ATA – Cloud certification provides the knowledge and experience required to discover and meet the business objectives of a small and medium business and to design an end-to-end IT solution that meets their unique requirements. This includes on-premises elements, hosted and cloud services. The certification also includes the knowledge and skill to deploy and troubleshoot the solution.

The skills we are going to learn in this program are:

1. Explain and recognize industry-standard cloud and virtualization technologies and their implications for customer needs

2. Plan and design end-to- end IT solutions for SMB customers

3. Install, configure, and upgrade end-to-end IT solutions for SMB customers

4. Optimize and troubleshoot end- to-end IT solutions for SMB customers

5. Administer and manage end-to-end IT solutions for SMB customers

Of course all these skills have different objectives inside to design and develop cloud solutions.

HP Remote Labs give students hands-on experience managing the hardware and software used in small and medium-sized businesses, and these labs are available with all HP ATA programs.

HP Remote Labs give students hands-on experience that they will use in real-world IT jobs. The Remote Labs include:

  • Live equipment. These are not simulations. All work takes place remotely on LIVE equipment located in an HP datacenter.
  • Real-world scenarios. Placed in real-world situations, students configure systems to demonstrate their knowledge and skills.
  • Modern hardware and software. Students explore and test their capabilities on modern hardware and software used by prospective employers.

All the best,
