The Certified Data Center Professional (CDCP®) course is designed to introduce you to the key components of a typical data center. It addresses how to set up and improve aspects such as power, cooling, security, cabling, and safety to ensure data center reliability.
Audience
This course is ideal for data center specialists, facilities managers, and IT professionals who work in and around data centers and those who are responsible for ensuring and enhancing data center availability and manageability.
Objectives
After completing this course, you should be able to:
Explain different types of data centers, their impact on business continuity, and the key factors affecting availability
Examine international and national standards, industry guidelines, and compliance requirements for data center design and sub-components
Identify site selection criteria, building requirements, and supporting facility needs to establish a high-performing and resilient data center
Deploy raised floors and suspended ceilings while considering cooling, grounding, load management, and airflow optimization
Design lighting layouts, emergency lighting systems, and positioning strategies to improve visibility, safety, and energy efficiency
Develop power redundancy strategies, configure UPS systems, microgrids, transformers, batteries, and optimize power distribution techniques
Assess EMF sources, shielding techniques, and best practices to protect critical IT equipment from interference and data corruption
Deploy AI-driven cooling management, containment strategies, liquid cooling, and seasonal thermal energy storage (STER) to improve efficiency and reduce costs
Deploy network cabling designs, redundancy strategies, and TIA-942 cabling topologies for a resilient and future-ready data center
Install re-suppression systems, detection technologies, and safety signage while ensuring compliance with re-protection regulations
Deploy physical security measures, access controls, surveillance systems, and safety protocols to protect data center assets from threats
Deploy BMS, DCIM, EMS, water leak detection, and alarm panels, ensuring continuous monitoring and proactive issue resolution
