Certification for VMware Professionals

PHILADELPHIA, Pennsylvania, October 22, 2011 --  In response to the overwhelming need for alternative certification paths for VMware Professionals, VMsources Group Inc. has announced the Certified Virtualized Datacenter eXpert™ 5 (CVDX™ 5). The CVDX™ 5 is offered openly, to any candidate who can complete the requirements and demonstrate the skills and techniques outlined in this document; regardless of prior attendance of any vendors training classes.

The Certified Virtualized Datacenter eXpert™ 5 (CVDX™ 5) is the first and only 100% practical exam and certification available for VMware® vSphere™. Candidates who qualify for the CVDX™ 5 will have conclusively proven that they possess the real-world skills and knowledge required to successfully install, configure and manage a VMware® vSphere™ 5 Cloud datacenter environment.

Up until now certifications for VMware® vSphere™ have focused on memorization of facts and figures which candidates must regurgitate in the form of a multiple-choice and multi-select exam. These certifications serve as much to prove a candidates test-taking ability as any specific set or knowledge. The CVDX™ 5 is distinguished by, not only its status as a practical examination, but also by its open-book nature and transparency of the process. According to John Borhek, VMsources C.E.O.:

"While most companies shroud their certification process in secrecy, VMsources wants to prove your skills using real-world resources. You aren't going to have to empty your pockets and turn-off the Internet to solve a problem in your datacenter, so why should you for certification?"

The skill set demonstrated in the successful completion of the CVDX™ 5 will represent the basis for the construction and administration of any VMware® vSphere™ 5 Cloud computing environment. Each assigned task has been be chosen for its representative nature and applicability to the overall nature of VMware® vSphere™ 5 administration.
