Course Overview
Hi everyone. My name is Leigh Bogardis, and welcome to my course, Cisco Data Center Network Design for CCDA DESGN (200-310). I'm a network architect based in the UK. Designing data center networks is daunting road. This associate level course will provide you with the terminology and conceptual knowledge to start you on that journey. In this course, we're going to explore the options and knowledge needed to define and design a data center network for your clients. Some of the major topics that we will cover include one, designing from the top down, start with the application and work down to the hardware. Two, network connectivity, but starting with power and cabling and moving up into switching and virtualization. Three, software defined networks. What is SDN, and how does Cisco deploy it? By the end of the course, you will be much more confident and knowledgeable about engaging in you first data center network design. Before beginning the course, you should be familiar with CCNA level techniques and technologies from Cisco. I hope you'll join me on this journey to learn about data center networks with the Cisco Data Center Network Design for CCDA DESGN (200-310) course, at Pluralsight.
