VMware Certified Professional - VMware vSphere Foundation Administrator

The VMware Certified Professional - VMware vSphere Foundation Administrator (VCP-VVF Admin) certification validates the skills required to deploy, manage, and support private cloud environments built on VMware vSphere Foundation (VVF). This certification is designed for IT professionals expanding from traditional infrastructure roles to cloud administration. Candidates for this certification includes professionals responsible for implementing and maintaining VVF infrastructure, ensuring it meets organizational service level objectives for availability, performance, and security. By achieving this certification, professionals demonstrate their ability to effectively operate VVF environments.

Why is the relevant for you as a user/customer?

Running VMware vSphere Foundation (VVF) means you’re operating a simple core layer of your private cloud based on VMware's origin technology: vSphere. When something isn’t configured correctly here, the impact is usually felt everywhere else in the environment. 

Someone with the VCP-VVF Administrator certification understands how the vSphere foundation works. This is important since in VVF certain aspects of a self-healing & fully monitored/automated and standardized datacenter are missing (you need VCF for this :P )

In short: having certified VVF expertise ensures that your core infrastructure runs reliably and efficiently, so your teams can spend more time delivering business value instead of troubleshooting foundation-level problems.

A VCP-VVF Administrator knows how to get vSphere up and running and keep it stable & solve immediate issues.
