Hello Everyone!

Books?

Trainings?

Tips?

I have 350-601 DCCOR guide but  I would like buy 300-615 DCIT and 300-610 DCID in ciscopress.com, They do not have it available.

Hi @manuelosorio 

My recommandation is to start with free available documentation, which is Ciscolive.

If you prefer books, then you can go for these ones:

https://learning.oreilly.com/library/view/ccnp-data-center/9780136602804/

Last but not least, the more expensive options, but with possibility to practice, the e-learning:
