VCP-VMC training & exam free for a limited time

If you are into VMware learning and certification, VMware has just released the multi-cloud VMware Certified Professional – VMware Cloud (VCP-VMC) certification, which includes Azure VMware Solution, VMware Cloud on AWS and GCVE as blueprint areas.

VMware is currently offering the training and VMware Certified Professional VMware Cloud 2022 (2V0-33.22) certification exam for free for a limited time. Use promotion code “VMCVCP100” when you book the exam at PearsonVUE.

As you can see in the diagram below, VMware lists an alternate multi-cloud certification path for the Cloud Management and Automation track, with VCP-VMC and a planned VCAP-VMC Design exam for 2023. I wonder if the rumored VCDX multi-cloud (VCDX-VMC) is coming at some time in the next year. They would still need a VCAP-VMC Deploy exam, but I am sure they could allow you to use a current VCAP Deploy exam from another track as a substitute in the mean time.

BYOIP to VMware Cloud on AWS Partner Network Blog Post Published

I recently authored this AWS Partner Network blog post which describes how to Bring Your Own IPv4 address to VMware Cloud on AWS using AWS Cloud.

This was driven by AWS customers wanting to migrate hundreds of legacy applications into VMware Cloud on AWS that have a static public IPv4 address constraint. They could not use the DHCP function from Amazon’s pool of public IPv4 addresses that VMware Cloud on AWS supports.
