Nutanix NCP-MCI 7.5 Certification Preparation: Multicloud Infrastructure

NCP-MCI 7.5 proves that you can deploy, configure, migrate, troubleshoot and run Nutanix infrastructure across a multicloud environment. The course is built on AOS 7.5, AHV 11.0 and Prism Central pc.7.5, the versions the exam is based on. Labs follow an administrator's real workload: clusters, networking, storage, virtual machines, data protection and maintenance. Each of the four exam sections ends with a timed set of practice questions so you can see where you stand before booking.
