Q: What are the advantages of cloud authentication over cloud computing and cloud service authentication?
A: Cloud certification integrates cloud computing and cloud service certification in terms of technology and knowledge system. Cloud certification has the following characteristics:
Covering full stack cloud technology: cloud certification not only covers virtualization technologies such as computing, storage and network, but also integrates key technologies such as container and cloud native to help you build a full stack cloud technology system from down to on the cloud to meet the needs of comprehensive cloud technology talents in the context of digital transformation.
More in line with the industry capability model: cloud certification is closer to the industry application and capability assessment. Learning and assessment are conducted in different directions according to the differences in the capability demands of cloud practitioners. At the same time, the proportion of scenario and comprehensive test questions is increased, which is more in line with the demands of the industry capability model.
More Huawei features: cloud certification not only builds the full stack cloud technology capability, but also integrates the best practices of security, reliability, high performance, low cost and combination of software and hardware of Huawei cloud solutions in industrial applications. Improve the full life cycle practice capability of cloud from the aspects of planning and design, deployment and implementation, operation and maintenance management, application migration and problem handling.
Q: Why does hcip set multiple sub directions? How can I choose these sub directions according to my career development?
A: Cloud authentication focuses on the application of cloud technology in industrial scenarios. Hcip authentication is mainly designed based on the corresponding capabilities and work scenarios of cloud operation and maintenance managers, architects and developers. Hcip cloud infrastructure v1.0 is mainly for operation and maintenance managers, hcip Cloud Service Solutions Architect V3.0 is mainly for architects, and hcip cloud service Devops engineer v2.0 is mainly for developers. Students can choose one or more sub directions to study according to their interest direction and career development plan.
Q: After cloud authentication is merged, is it more difficult to pass the hcie cloud service exam?
A: We believe that hcie is a domain expert among ICT practitioners and belongs to the spire of the pyramid. As an expert in the cloud field, you must have the ability of multi scene integration. Cloud authentication focuses on cloud technology. From the level of capability standards, according to HCIA -> HCIP ->  Hcie path is advanced. Different certification levels are mainly reflected in different knowledge point coverage and technical difficulty. There are three sub directions involved in different scenarios in the hcip phase of cloud certification. Hcie cloud service refines the key contents of each sub direction and expands them to ensure the balance of technical depth and breadth of hcie cloud service.
