This course teaches students the fundamentals of the HPE server portfolio, including HPE ProLiant ML, DL and BL servers, HPE SimpliVity 380, HPE Apollo, and HPE Synergy solutions. It also covers the technologies and tools necessary for managing a data center, including on-system, on-premises, and on-cloud management.
The course uses participant centered learning and hands-on emulators. Emulators use software to replicate HPE Server technologies and allow learners to engage in lab activities using web based resources.
