Hi
I am now responsible for LAMP applications. I worked previously with Oracle
11g.
It seems that those exams are an "easy win" for me. I guess my preparation
effort is about 60 hours.
1Z0-871 MySQL 5 Developer Certified Professional Exam, Part I
1Z0-872 MySQL 5 Developer Certified Professional Exam, Part II
1Z0-873 MySQL 5 Database Administrator Certified Professional Exam, Part I
1Z0-874 MySQL 5 Database Administrator Certified Professional Exam, Part II
My concern is about the future of MySQL and the MySQL certifications.
- it seems the exams didn't change since 2005
- Linux distributions ship MariaDB (not MySQL)
- Oracle Press don't publish an official study guide
- MySQL OCP exams are simpler than other OCP exams (for example Oracle 11g)
what do you think?
