Upon completion of this course, you should be able to:

• Evaluate storage architectures and key data center elements in classic, virtualized, and cloud environments
• Explain physical and logical components of a storage infrastructure including storage subsystems, RAID, and intelligent storage systems
• Describe storage networking technologies such as FC SAN, IP SAN, FCoE, NAS, and object-based and unified storage
• Articulate business continuity solutions—backup and replication, and archive for managing fixed content
• Describe information security requirements and solutions, and identify parameters for managing and monitoring storage infrastructure in classic, virtualized, and cloud environments

Information Storage and Management (ISM) is the only course of its kind to provide a comprehensive understanding the varied storage infrastructure components in classic and virtual environments. It enables participants to make informed decisions in an increasingly complex IT environment. It provides a strong understanding of underlying storage technologies and prepares participants for advanced concepts, technologies, and products. Participants will learn the architectures, features, and benefits of intelligent storage systems; storage networking technologies such as FC SAN, IP SAN, NAS, and object-based and unified storage; business continuity solutions such as backup and replication; the increasingly critical area of information security and management, and the emerging field of Cloud computing. This unique, open course focuses on concepts and principles which are further illustrated and reinforced with EMC product examples.

This course was created by Universidad Tecmilenio along with EMC2.

EMC2 is a company that manufactures software and systems for administration and storage of information. EMC2 is focused on the business segment, its core product is the Symmetrix, which is part of the storage networks of many computer centers, allowing 24/7 operations to companies.

With the purpose of preparing new generations of IT professionals, EMC ACADEMIC ALLIANCE is created to collaborate with institutes and universities around the world, so that students can study successful careers in a constantly changing IT sector.

With this alliance, you will have access to cases, technical reports and simulators of information storage products that will enrich your professional studies, you will also have the opportunity to obtain an Associate level.

We hope you will find this experience to be very satisfying and the knowledge you get will help you to increase the success in the development of your career.
