Course Description

Overview

VMware vSphere is the most popular platform for deploying virtualized workloads. In this course you will learn how to build reliable enterprise grade VMware vSphere infrastructure from scratch to fully operational production environment.

Is this a right course for me? (Please click blueFull detailslinkbelow)

Have you ever wondered how to set-up your own VMware vSphere infrastructure? How everything is working together to create reliable environment for virtual machines? I have designed this course to help you to understand key concepts of VMware vSphere and I will guide you through whole process of creating your own VMware vSphere infrastructure.

What is covered?

I wont be talking much about theory and all those fancy acronyms you can see everywhere. Instead of that we will create our very new enterprise grade VMware vSphere environment. We will install three hypervisors and central management platform, configure real world networking and interconnect everything together. Then I will cover key functions of our newly created environment such is high availability, shared storage, migrations of virtual machines and all useful functions that might be handy in real world. After this course, you will be able to set-up you own VMware vSphere environment in your company from the scratch and provide reliable infrastructure for your virtual machines.

Am I going to be bored?

I have tried to be as practical as possible. I wont disturb you with those little things like How many hypervisors can be part of a cluster? Is it 32 or 64? No, we will be learning things by doing them in my lab. Because of those practical lessons I hope you will enjoy them much more than some theory based lectures.

Few selected reviews. Thank you!

After finishing the course and recreating everything in my VMware workstation nested ESXi Lab. I learned a lot of things that i can use at my job. I am aspiring to join the vmware experts at my company and this put me on a fast track towards achieving that. This filled in a huge gap (production grade design that I can use in my VCP lab) in my studies for VCP 6. Many thanks to the author. I hope he adds more design related videos and shares his experiences about designing private clouds in the bonus section. I would like the videos to be geared towards new VMware architects.
Love it Love It Love It. Deatailled and extremely easy to understand and follow.
I am junior VMware administrator and this course was really usefully for me. At my work I usually solve incidents within the infrastructure but I haven't actually install the environment from the beginning. Based on what I have learned I have better understanding how individual components works together.
It's a great course that provides a detailed introduction to VMware and its features.
Helps a lot to enhance skill on the latest version of vSphere 6.

It wasnt immeadiately relevant for my day to day work as I am in storage support. However knowing better what is going on on a host side it definitely useful. And I can definitely say that the troubleshooting part was something I will definitely remember. Overall super course very skilled presenter!

Excellent !!!

A great overall course with an author who understands the content well and delivers it at just the right pace; unfortunately most students wont be able to follow along. The author goes into great detail about deploying a full vSphere lab (and does an excellent job), but sadly offers no assistance on how to build out the other key infrastructure components required for this course, namely a Windows DC and Storage Server (and to some extent, a simpler alternative for networking), offering instead the dreaded phrase "as this course is not focused on , we won't be covering that here." As someone with over 20 years working in the IT industry, this was not an issue for me to figure out myself but even then it took me a few days. For many students that will not be the case and this will be a barrier for them. In the end, instead of them being able to follow along and try everything for themselves in their own lab (the intent of this course), they will left to just 'watching' someone deploy and manage a full vSphere.
