VCAP5-DCD Resources

As I started studying towards the VCAP5-DCD certification, I will use this page as a “public bookmark” of resources I plan to use: books, links, bookmarks, podcasts and blog posts provided by other members of the VMware Community. The primary purpose of this page is to organize myself and categorize resources so I don’t get lost within the incredible amount of resources already available and created by others.

Disclaimer: this page is “work in progress”. I will keep updating it with new resources whenever possible. If you want to be added, drop me a DM on twitter.

Purchased Books

  • VMware vSphere Design, 2nd edition (Forbes Guthrie, Scott Lowe, Kendrick Coleman)
