CCNP Data Center training FAQs

How is 300-615 DCIT v1.2 different from earlier versions?

300-615 DCIT v1.2 reflects how data centers actually operate today, with more emphasis on cloud-connected environments, automation, and AI-assisted tools. This course matches Cisco’s focus: less on legacy setups and more on troubleshooting modern infrastructures that use automation, scripting, centralized management, VXLAN EVPN, Fibre Channel services, and real-world security scenarios.

How much does the 300-615 DCIT exam and CCNP Data Center cost?

The CCNP Data Center costs at least $700 altogether. To earn the CCNP Data Center, you need to pass two exams: one mandatory core exam (350-601 DCCOR) and at least one concentration exam like DCIT (300-615). The core exam costs $400, and each concentration exam costs $300. That’s a big investment, and many professionals use structured courses like this one to avoid paying exam re-take fees.

Are the CCNP Data Center and 300-615 DCIT useful in cloud or hybrid environments?

Network engineers, systems administrators, data center architects, and IT professionals responsible for maintaining and optimizing data center operations are the best audience for this course (and, of course, junior professionals who want to move into those positions). Any IT professionals who are involved in designing, implementing, or supporting data center solutions will benefit from the comprehensive skills and knowledge this course covers for effectively troubleshooting complex network environments.

Is the 300-615 DCIT v1.2 exam harder than DCCOR?

The CCNP Data Center concentration exam DCIT (300-615) and the core exam DCCOR (350-601) are challenging in different ways. DCCOR tests broad knowledge across data center technologies, while DCIT goes deep into troubleshooting and problem-solving. Many learners find DCIT harder because it expects you to think like a senior engineer during real incidents, diagnosing issues across multiple systems rather than recalling configurations or concepts.

Is 300-615 DCIT worth it?

If you work in enterprise or hybrid data centers, 300-615 DCIT is absolutely worth it. Troubleshooting complex, real-world infrastructure is a highly valued skill, since automation and centralized management are quickly becoming standard. Organizations need engineers who can dig into existing workflows and understand why they failed, not just build new ones. This 300-615 training builds the confidence and credibility to step into senior roles where deep knowledge and problem-solving matter most.

Who is CCNP Data Center training for?

This 300-615 DCIT v1.2 course is designed for mid- to senior-level data center and network engineers who want to support large or hybrid environments, handle high-visibility incidents, or move into senior engineer or architect roles.

When learning a new technology, people sometimes build a wall that complicates the learning process because of the unknown. I like tearing down that wall — and having people fall in love with that technology.
