Red Hat OpenStack认证

Red Hat的OpenStack Administrator认证考试，简称RHOS。

简要介绍
1、Red Hat的认证考试学分总共为300分，及格为210分，我的考试成绩为260分，估计是往容器里上传文件时，没按照它的要求来设定成其规定的文件名，扣了分数。

2、Red Hat OpenStack认证考试时间为3个小时。

3、考试环境，主要是由Red Hat的监考官，自动化批量部署考试环境，考试人员使用监考官电脑上的rdo源，来安装部署openstack all-in-one节点，随后都  以围绕创建VM为中心，结果是让监考官的检测收集工具能ping通你VM的浮动IP地址。随后，将数据传输至red hat的远程服务器上。

4、一般是在三个工作日内取得证书

5、以邮件形式发布你的成绩和证书，可以在官网上查询到你的证书。

6、培训费用，大概是5k左右。目前，只能通过在Red hat的合作公司进行培训，才能参加考试。

OK！


如何看待OpenStack证书
对于OpenStack证书，或许有的人认为没有必要考、意义不大；有的人认为有必要考，其意义对自己还是蛮重要的。

我个人觉得，OpenStack的证书，好比当年的Oracle、DB2数据库认证和Cisco认证，那时候，认可的人是比较少的，但随着这些行业的发展，其市场愈加广泛，对证书的认可度也自然走高。

那么同样的推理，如今以OpenStack为代表的云计算行业，只要持续发展良好，市场愈加广泛，就有值得考证的意义（注意，这里我指的并不是为了考证而去考证，而是在学以致用中去考试）。


关于，大神要不要考证的疑问？
这个，肯定是看自己的意愿了。我所知道的是民生银行的科技部总经理牛新庄（年薪247w左右）他同时具有DB2、AIX系统方面的证书。某云计算公司的一技术领导也取得了openstack证书。

一句话，只有你仍然从事云计算行业、只要云计算行业仍在发展，那么有总比没有好吧。当然，这完全取决于你自己。

如何取得OpenStack认证？
目前，我所知道的国内外有权威颁布OpenStack认证的公司主要有：
1、Red Hat的RHOS认证
2、EXIN（国际信息科学考试学会 ）的认证，具体不太了解，可上官网查看
3、Mirantis的OpenStack认证

个人觉得Red Hat的权威些，其是基金会高级成员，对openstack贡献率不用说了，更是商用和开源领域Linux服务、集成的佼佼者。
