RHCA Training
RED HAT CERTIFIED ARCHITECT
Red Hat Certified Architect (RHCA) is the Master Level
Certification Program with in-depth, hands-on training for
Senior Linux System Administrators enabling them to design and
deploy large and complex Linux based environments. This is a
capstone Certification, and shall be above the RHCE and RHCT.
The full RHCA curriculum consists of four-advanced 400-level
Enterprise Architect courses and an upper-level security course
(RHS333).
The course or modules for RHCA includes:
RHS333 - RedHat Enterprise Security: Network Services
RH 401 - Red Hat Enterprise Deployment and Systems Management
RH 423 - Red Hat Enterprise Directory Services and
Authentication
OR
RH 318 - Enterprise Virtualization
RH 436 - RedHat Enterprise Storage Management
RH 442 - Red Hat Enterprise System Monitoring and Performance
Tuning
Unlike the RHCE and RHCT certification programs, RHCA
courses can be pursued on module basis i.e. each course can be
taken separately and Redhat endorsement can be achieved for that
particular course by taking the certification exam successfully
for the same, making it convenient for senior administrators to
choose their area of specialisation without going through the
entire course saving money and time. This compartmental system
also provides the flexibility to attain RHCA in a phased manner
thus reducing the risk of taking the advanced modules at one
stretch.
The prerequisite for RHCA or for any of the 400- level course
is a current RHCE certification.
