Updating Oracle Certification, which exam I should pass?

Hello, everyone, please can anybody advice me, regarding question in topic. My Solaris Administrator Certificate will expire in June, and Solaris Network Specialist in July, earlier in Sun there was one exam, for updating current certification. But now we have Solaris 11, which exam I can pass for updating my Solaris certification. Can I pass Solaris 11 exam, for example "transition to Solaris 11" for updating my certification.
Thank you in advance.

Certifications do not expire, but we do recommend that you keep your certifications up-to-date. Exam 1Z0-820 will upgrade your certification to Solaris 11 (training not required, but recommended). There is not an 11 version of the Network Admin at this time, but your current certification will not expire.

Mountain Lion is the current version of the latest OS, with Mavericks coming this fall.
However, I would suggest that you simply upgrade to Snow Leopard -> http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard. It's a very good, very fast OS and, best of all, it can still run those PPC apps that you may be using.

Oracle 1Z0-052 exam help !!

Hi,
I have passed SQL fundamental-I (1Z0-051) exam and now I am preparing for oracle database Administration exam-I(1Z0-052), but I have few questions :
(1) Is knowledge of linux/solaris is must to pass this exam.
(2) Is their is any requirement of PL/SQL before starting for this exam study.

As Brandye says, you should use the exam topics to plan your study. The answer to your questions, however, is no to both. You can find links to Oracle documentation, articles, books and videos relevant to this exam here:

Is it possible to get oracle certification on line?

Hi,
after many years developing in pl/sql on Oracle I've decided to study for giving the pl/sql exam (Oracle Database 11g: SQL Fundamentals I 1Z0-051 and Oracle Database 11g: Program with PL/SQL 1Z0-144).
My questions are:
- is it possible to pass the test on line?
- is it possible to download freely from the web the previous exam tests or sample tests about these two exams?
Thanks in advance!

- is it possible to pass the test on line?
- is it possible to download freely from the web the previous exam tests or sample tests about these two exams?
- 1Z0-051 is one of the very few exams that can be taken online. 1Z0-144 cannot be taken online. It must be taken at a Pearson Vue testing center.
- No. There are practice exams available for a fee from SelfTest Software, Transcender, and uCertify. Anything else you find is likely to be a brain dump, which is illegal and can invalidate your certification. However, there are links to certification-safe resources for both exams at the following links:

Which Oracle Certification Should I Start With

Hi,
I'm looking for some advice on which Oracle certification I should start with. Let me first tell you about me and my business goals. I an new to the SQL world but have a firm grasp of the RDBMS. I have also worked as a Business Analyst for a company that is doing an Oracle upgrade including the EBS. I have had to do some very basic queries. My business goal is to improve my Oracle database skills.
I would like to add Business (Data) Analyst to my job description some day. I would like to be both a Business Analyst and a Business Data Analyst. I have been asked to work as a jr. DBA in the past, and would like to continue to pursue those options. Currently, my work seems to evolve around Oracle as opposed to the other businesses out there.
Given this information, which certification would you recommend I start with. Please let me know if you require additional information. This is my long term business goal so I will take as much time as needed to get it done. I was thinking I should start with *1Z0-051 SQL Fundamentals I* (11g). Any thoughts?
Thank you in advance!

If you get to Business Analyst than you can go wiht ebs certification

But dont forget those subjects are different from eachother and need different skills to become senior on those subjects

Well, putting it politely, you should defer the certification for a while as I don't think it's going to help you much at the moment.
For the difference between 11g and 12c, read this book.
Contents
If you want to choose a career path of DBA, what you need to do is to understand the oracle database. 12c is a very recent release and just 2 days ago, in a group of about 600 people at a conference, not a single one mentioned that they are having it in their production systems. That is to be expected too as testing and validations of the new releases take time. 11g, on the other hand is available from a long time. So if it is me, I would start from 11g. For improving your skills, download oracle databas from http://otn.oracle.com and install it and play with it.
Study material is only available for those who pay and attend the courses from either Oracle University or from approved partners. Sharing of it is strictly not allowed. Buy a market exam preparation guide if you are not willing to attend a course yet but just so you know, to earn OCP, you would need to attend one course at least from either OU or from its partner.

Suggest me certification which should boost my career

Hi,
I am having 7+ years of experience in dot net technology(WCF,WPF.MOSS,SQL,ASP.NET,TFS and C# language). Please suggest me the certification which should boost my career, i thought of doing MS certification on SQL or any dotnet framework related(architecture).
Currently i am at USA on H1B. Please friends and seniors help me on this.
Thanks,
Adarsh

Hi, Adarsh.
It sounds like you should earn either the older MCPD certification title or the newer MCSD certification title.
There are different types of each of these two (2) titles. Learn more about them using the following links:
Older VS2010/.NET 4.0 MCPD:
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcpd-certification.aspx
Newer VS2012/.NET 4.5 MCSD:
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/mcsd-certification.aspx
The three (3)
MCPD for Visual Studio 2010 titles include a certification for Windows desktop applications using WinForms and WPF. They also include an ASP.NET certification using ASP.NET Forms/MVC. Both include data access (ADO.NET and EF) and WCF.
The four (4) MCSD titles cover Web Development, Store Apps, SharePoint, and ALM with TFS.
Alternately, if you are interested in becoming certified in SQL Server 2008 or SQL Server 2012, you can earn your MCSA. For SQL 2012, you can earn your MCSA
and MCSE. Learn more at the following link:
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/sql-certification.aspx
NOTE: There are two older MCITP certification titles still available for SQL Server 2008. However, you need to pass the required exams by July 31, 2014. Here is more info about the SQL Server 2008 MCITP titles:
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/sql-certification.aspx#item-ID0EBAAAABBA
IMPORTANT: The newer MCSD certification titles require you to recertify every two (2) years while the MCSE titles require you to recertify every three (3) years. The older MCPD and MCITP titles
never require recertification.
Learn more about recertification here:
http://www.microsoft.com/learning/en-us/certification-exam-policies.aspx#dl-ID0EAAAAAAAAABA
Good luck!
Best wishes, Davin Mickelson

Oracle Certification Exams of J Developer Software

Dear Members,
I want to know, currently, is oracle offering any exams , passing which we can get certified in JDev Technologies?
Kindly please let me know.
Best Regards & Thanks,
Arun Reddy D.

I don't think there is one at this time. [OCP page|http://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=42#2] does not provide any information on JDev certification exam.
Can Oracle PMs can suggest approximately when is it scheduled to become available?

Which is the best Oracle certification for a programmer

Hi,
I have been doing web development in java for about 2 years now. I already have a Bachelors of Science in Computer Science but I want to stay competitive and am considering an Oracle Certification. The problem is that I am having trouble deciding which one to pursue. I am trying to keep emerging technologies in mind and I know that cloud computing and mobile devices are taking over. But I still know that there are many other companies out there that aren't ready for all that. I have found certifications such as:
Oracle Certified Professional Java Programmer
Oracle Certified Professional, Java EE 5 Web Component Developer
Oracle Certified Professional, Java EE 5 Business Component Developer
Oracle Certified Professional, Java EE 5 Web Services Developer
Oracle Certified Master, Java EE 5 Enterprise Architect
Oracle Certified Expert,Java Platform, Enterprise Edition 6 JavaServer Pages and
Servlet Developer
Personally, I think that "Oracle Certified Master, Java EE 5 Enterprise Architect" looks the most attractive because it seems to wrap everything into one. But the prep time and costs for this are both pretty high. Does anyone have any good information or experience that can help me make a better decision?
Thanks a bunch!

But I also doubt whether the question raised was clear enough for the person to be answered! - just my two cents ....Even if my question was not clear enough (which it was), i would expect someone applying for a senior position such as technical architect position to ask clarifying questions. My point from the beginning was, you absolutely are not qualified to become a technical architect with just a certification. Here is how the interview went
Me - How do you find out what your browser is submitting to the server from a purely client perspective?
Candidate - I will put the receiving server in debug mode and print out values.
Me - What if you don't have access to that server?
Candidate - Well, its my server.
Me - Okaay, you open your browser and go to CNN.com and click on a link, how do you find out details about that request?
Candidate - You can't.
Me - So you are saying you can't inspect what your browser is sending in http requests?
Candidate - yeah....i guess.
Me - Have you heard of tools such as wireshark, firebug, httpfox, http analyzer, tcpmon etc
Candidate - No, never heard of it.
I ended the interview after that.Hmm. Probably this guy didn't know what he was talking about, but still I wouldn't necessarily demand from someone applying for an architect position to know the gritty details of development; that's too low level for someone who should be focusing on the big picture. I'd rather have someone that knows how to design and guide people to build maintainable systems in stead of someone that knows how to sniff packets.
But then again you'd have to define what the architect role in this case exactly means. For all I know it is actually a senior developer position with a slightly better ring to the title ;)

Dhivya MI am still not fully sure I understand whether you are seeking training or how to register for the exam.
To see where you can take the exam goto: http://www.pearsonvue.com/Oracle/locate/
To register to schedule and sit the exam goto http://www.pearsonvue.com/Oracle/
To locate the certification you are wishing to obtain and the exams required for it: https://education.oracle.com/pls/web_prod-plq-dad/db_pages.getpage?page_id=141
http://certiifcation.oracle.com is a valuable resource. Be sure you have fully read everything relevant under 'getting started' and also 'support - faq'
If you are seeking training:-
1) See education.oracle.com for Oracle University Training.
2) You might find the Workforce development program give more cost effective training: https://workforce.oracle.com/pls/wdp/new_home.main . Please note that I believe their website can be misleading; especially for some countries.
Please note that certain (typically higher) Certifications require a course attendance from an appropriate institution. Particularly If you are not going through Oracle University ensure that your certification course requirements will mean the certification requirements, and if in any doubt do not rely upon the course providers word.
