Preparing for the Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure 6.10 Exam

Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure 6.10 is the next certification level after NCP-MCI 6.10.

Since version 6.5, this exam has changed its format, and now it is not a familiar test but laboratory work in a live Nutanix multi-cluster environment with a certain number of scenarios and tasks that need to be completed. The closest analogies are any of the Red Hat exams.

Next, we will look in more detail at what the exam is and the list of topics, as well as the preparation procedure.

Note: This is an updated version of my NCM-MCI 6.5 prep guide.

What’s new at Nutanix University? NCM-MCI 6.10 beta exam is out

Nutanix announced that the Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) certification is updated to version 6.10, and the exam is now in the beta state.

For those who don’t know, this is a practice exam in a real-lab environment, and this is not a test. I have an article on how to prepare for the NCM-MCI 6.5 exam

In addition to the certification, the course Advanced Administration & Performance Management (AAPM) was updated to version 6.10 too, so make sure to check it out during preparation.

Preparing for the Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure 6.5 Exam

Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure 6.5 is the next certification level after NCP-MCI 6.5, and successful completion of this certification provides access to the NCX and NPX expert-level exams.

If we draw a parallel with the certifications of other vendors, this certification belongs to the Advanced Professional category and, for quite a long time, was called Nutanix Certified Advanced Professional (NCAP).

Since version 6.5, this exam has changed its format, and now it is not a familiar test, but a laboratory work with a certain number of scenarios and tasks that need to be performed on real clusters. Again, the closest analogies are VMware Certified Advanced Professional – Deploy or any of the Red Hat exams.

Next, we will look in more detail at what the exam is, the list of topics, as well as the preparation procedure.
