"IT professionals, perhaps more than anyone, have a sense of just how fast things are changing in this information-driven world. But Cisco's latest Visual Networking Index, an ongoing study of global IP traffic, adds perspective that may influence some of your thinking when it comes to long-range capacity planning.

Cisco says 'global IP traffic will pass the zettabyte threshold [a zettabyte is a billion terabytes] by the end of 2015, and will reach 1.4 zettabyes per year by 2017.'

PMP, CISSP, VCP5-DCV, ITIL v3 Foundation, MCITP, Cisco CCIE, RHCA, MCSM, CISM, GSE

Randy Muller, of Global Knowledge, writes, "What gives meaning to a certification? Is it the certification vendor? Is it the subject? Or is it the perceived difficulty, mystic or aura? Or might it be something totally different? There are some certifications and/or vendors that are perceived to be more valuable - think of Cisco's CCIE, which has been perceived as meaning something (value) since its inception. Then there are other certifications that don't have this same perceived value - certifications that are seen as too easy or ones that might be seen as entry-level certifications. Following is a list of certifications that do have perceived value and worth:"

  • PMP - Project Management Professional
  • CISSP - Certified Information Systems Security Professional
  • VCP5-DCV: VMware Certified Professional 5 - Data Center Virtualization
  • ITIL® v3 Foundation
  • MCITP: Database Administrator 2008
  • Cisco CCIE - Cisco Certified Internetwork Expert)
  • RHCA - Red Hat Certified Architect
  • MCSM - Microsoft Certified Solutions Master
