The NS0-175 exam is Network Appliance's official test for the FlexPod Design Specialist credential, a certification at the Professional level. Earning it tells employers your skills have been verified by the vendor itself, which carries real weight in hiring and promotion decisions. Within the same certification track, it sits alongside NetApp Certified Data Administrator (NCDA), Cisco UCS certifications, FlexPod Implementation training, so it can also serve as a stepping stone toward those credentials.

Network Appliance divides the Network Appliance Cisco and NetApp FlexPod Design Specialist exam into 6 domains. The largest ones are Compute Design (Cisco UCS), Deployment and Best Practices, Storage Design (NetApp) — together these account for the bulk of your score, so start there. The complete domain-by-domain outline appears in the exam topics section above on this page.
