EMCSA- clariion solutions or VNX solutions?

Hi all

I work as SAN engineer, I look after Clariion CX4 storage system

I recently passed EMCISA.

My next plan is it get EMCSA certification.

I want to know which is better .. the old Clariion which am working with or the new future VNX solutions

Clariion Solutions(E20-522) or VNX Solutions(E20-547) ???

Thanks in advance

Thank you for your question. The answer to your question depends on where you are heading and since the company you work for is still using CLARiiON systems, what they are going to do in the future. The CLARiiON certification program will still be available and the training associated with it as well.  There are also Video ILT recordings available in place of taking the instructor led training.  EMC is focused on VNX unified storage, so going forward the only training that will be developed and maintained will be the VNX focused courses.  We expect this training and certification program to continue to grow and have seen a shift in certifications away from CLARiiON to VNX.

I hope this helps.

Sharath - All i can say is you need to understand the CX and VNX Architecture. CX is only for block level and VNX is for Unified (File and Block). The hardware Architecture is different when compare to both CX and VNX. Any certification you do it has its benifits.
