Overview of this book

This exam guide enables you to install, configure, and manage the vSphere 6.5 infrastructure in all its components: vCenter Server, ESXi hosts, and virtual machines, while helping you to prepare for the industry standard certification. This data center book will assist you in automating administration tasks and enhancing your environment’s capabilities. You will begin with an introduction to all aspects related to security, networking, and storage in vSphere 6.5. Next, you will learn about resource management and understand how to back up and restore the vSphere 6.5 infrastructure. As you advance, you will also cover troubleshooting, deployment, availability, and virtual machine management. This is followed by two mock tests that will test your knowledge and challenge your understanding of all the topics included in the exam.

Some demographics data

Usually, VMware does not track the exact numbers of each certification and each path.

There is an exception for the VCDX level. Because it's an elite level, there is a certification portal called VCDX Directory (https://vcdx.vmware.com/), with all of the details of each VCDX.

Also, there is an interesting infographic about VCDX, available at https://blogs.vmware.com/education/2018/02/15/vcdxs-around-world-wheres-nearest-vmware-certified-design-expert/.

VMware sometimes publishes stats on the other certifications.

VCP-DCV is our most popular certification, with more than 120,000 professionals certified around the world, in more than 190 countries.

In the past, VMware has also published some infographics about the VCP and VCAP certifications, which can be seen in the following blog posts:
