Temario This course focuses on the design and planning of a Vblock architecture, beginning with a thorough analysis of the application and services the solution will provide. From this analysis, an appropriate Vblock configuration is sized and the details necessary to implement the solution defined and documented. The VCE methodology, tools, and documentation for performing an end-to-end analysis and design are leveraged to ensure the solution is designed to meet the requirements. The outcome of the analysis and design phase is a build/implement plan used to pre-build the solution at the VCE facility or at the customer’s site
