Microsoft on June 14 in the MCP LiveMeeting officially released Windows Server 2008 certification road map. Concern about the new generation of server operating systems of Microsoft Certified finally unveiled.
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 certification system will use a new generation of Microsoft certification architecture, that is, MCTs, MCITP certification system.
First of all, I give a brief introduction to Microsoft's new certification system:
Microsoft Certified Technology Specialist (MCTS): focused on configuring and troubleshooting key
technologies. focus on key technologies and configuration troubleshooting
Microsoft Certified IT Professional (MCITP): focused on advanced infrastructure design. Focus on high -
The base structure design
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 systems MCTS certification will cover the following areas:
1, Active Directory Domain Services AD domain services
2, Identity and Access Management identity and access management
3, Internet Services Internet Service
4, Terminal Services Terminal Services
5, Networking Infrastructure Network Infrastructure
Microsoft Windows Server 2008 systems MCITP Certification will involve the following:
1, Infrastructure Operations implementation of the infrastructure
2, Active Directory Design and Planning AD design and plan
According to the test over the content, Windows Server 2008 systems will have three MCTS exams test were AD, system architecture and application platform, a
Body for the subjects:
70-640: TS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory, Configuring Windows Server 2008 AD configuration
70-642: TS: Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure, Configuring Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure
Configuration
70-643: TS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Platform, Configuring Windows Server 2008 platform equipped with application
Home
Windows Server 2008 systems will have two MCITP exams are:
70-646: Pro: Windows Server 2008 Administrator Windows Server 2008 administrators
70-647: Pro: Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Administrator Windows Server 2008 Enterprise Manager
Note: The two MCITP no affiliation, it should be said, Windows Server 2008 systems administrators to focus on management, maintenance; Windows
Server 2008 Enterprise Manager focusing on the system, planning, deployment, management and maintenance
Through 70-640 and 70-642, 70-646 exam can be coupled with the MCITP: Server Administrator, through a total of 3 examinations.
640 + 642 + 646 = MCITP: Server Administrator
In order to become MCITP: Enterprise Administrator, to be adopted in 70-640,70-642 and 70-643 on the basis of the increase in client systems test test
70-620: TS: Configuring Microsoft Windows Vista Client or 70-624: TS: Deploying and Maintaining Windows
Vista Client and 2007 Microsoft Office System Desktops, after the Canadian 70-647 exam, that is, through 5 examination.
640 + 642 + 643 + 620 (or 624) + 647 = MCITP: Enterprise Administrator
Possible at this stage, we are most concerned about is how MCSE (MCSA) certification to upgrade to the new certification. Now I will tell us how the MCSA and MCSE upgrade to the new
Generation operating system certification.
First of all, I would like to note that the holding MCSE 2000 or MCSA 2000 certification system of friends, can not directly upgrade to the new certification system. Only
Windows Server 2003 certification system can be upgraded to a friend. In addition, holders of MCSE (MCSA): Security and safety direction MCSE (MCSA):
Exchange-bound friends, a new certification system will no longer have these two directions, the test has been covered in the new certification test subjects. The
ISA Server and Exchange Server will be a separate MCTS and MCITP exams (about Exchange Server 2007 certification has been launched, the details of
See the official Microsoft site www.microsoft.com/learning/).
If you hold MCSA 2003 certification, plus exam 70-648: Upgrading your MCSA on Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server
2008, will be MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory, Configuring and MCTS: Windows Server 2008
Network Infrastructure the two MCTS certificate.
MCSA + 648 = MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory, Configuring
+ MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure, Configuring
640 + 642 =
If you hold MCSE 2003 certification, plus exam 70-649: Upgrading your MCSE on Windows Server 2003 to Windows Server
2008, will be MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory, Configuring, MCTS: Windows Server 2008
Network Infrastructure and MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Platform, Configuring certificates of all three MCTS
. http://www.pass4sure.com/sitemap_1.html
MCSE + 649 = MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Active Directory, Configuring
+ MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Network Infrastructure, Configuring
+ MCTS: Windows Server 2008 Applications Platform, Configuring
= 640 + 642 + 643
Note: All examinations can upgrade directly to upgrade to MCITP certification.
As a result, holders of MCSA 2003 or MCSE 2003 certification friends to upgrade to MCITP, are required to test Pro-related test, namely:
MCSA + 648 + 646 = MCITP: Server Administrator to test a total of 2
MCSA + 648 + 643 + 620 (or 624) + 647 = MCITP: Enterprise Administrator to test a total of 4
MCSE + 649 + 646 = MCITP: Server Administrator to test a total of 2
MCSE + 649 + 620 (or 624) + 647 = MCITP: Enterprise Administrator to test a total of 3
Recommendation: As a result, I strongly recommend, is now ready to start MCSE certification in the future and intend to upgrade to Windows Server 2008 certification of a friend, on behalf of 620
Now for the popular 270 as a client MCSE exam system, so that the upgrade to MCITP: Enterprise Administrator certification, do not have to
Re-test 620 test!
Finally, with regard to the new certification system launched in time, the official news is that Microsoft Windows Server 2008 Release to Manufacturing (RTM) version of the 70-224 / 70-227 / 70-228 / 70-244 / 70-270 / 70-290 Released one month after the launch of MCTS exam, RTM version released two months to launch MCITP exam.
