EMC Information Storage and Management v2(MR-5VP-ISMv2)

Information Storage and Management (ISM) is the only course of its kind to fill the knowledge gap in understanding varied components of modern information storage infrastructure.It provides a strong understanding of information storage technologies which prepares you to learn advanced concepts, technologies and also enable you to make more informed decisions in an increasingly complex IT environment.You will learn about the architectures, features, and benefits of Intelligent Storage Systems; storage networking technologies such as FC-SAN, NAS, and IP-SAN;long-term archiving solution – CAS; business continuity solutions such as backup and replication,the increasingly critical area of information security, and the emerging field of storage virtualization including storage resource management.The technologies described in the course are illustrated and reinforced with EMC product examples.Realistic case studies enable the participant to design the most appropriate solution for given sets of criteria.

This course is intended for

  • Experienced storage professionals who may not have exposure to all of the segments of modern storage infrastructure.
  • Experienced IT professionals taking on the responsibility to manage storage infrastructure
  • Students and IT professionals who want to build their career in the storage industry
  • Organization-wide IT teams who are directly or indirectly responsible for planning, designing, deploying, managing or leveraging information infrastructure.
  • Individuals who are seeking EMC Proven™ Professional Information Storage and Management Associate (EMCPA) level certification.
  • Course attendees are expected to have experience with common features of modern computer software. Also helpful are knowledge of mathematics through elementary calculus and experience with computer programming at the level of an introductory course in any computer programming language. No prior Mathematica experience is required for this course.

    Upon successful completion of this course, participants should be able to:

  • Evaluate storage architecture; understand logical and physical components of a storage infrastructure including storage subsystems
  • Describe storage networking technologies such as FC-SAN, NAS, IP-SAN and data archival solution – CAS
  • Identify different storage virtualization technologies and their benefits
  • Understand and articulate business continuity solutions including, backup and recovery technologies, and local and remote replication solutions
  • Define information security, and storage security domains
  • Identify parameters of managing and monitoring storage infrastructure and describe common storage management activities and solutions
