Today we are introducing the Nutanix Certified Master – Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) 7.5 Beta exam, designed to validate advanced skills in optimizing, troubleshooting, securing, and managing enterprise environments running on the Nutanix Cloud Platform. As the highest-level certification in the Multicloud Infrastructure track, the exam measures a candidate's ability to solve real-world infrastructure challenges while aligning platform capabilities with business requirements. 

Unlike traditional certification exams, the NCM-MCI 7.5 Beta consists of 17 hands-on scenarios completed in a live Nutanix multi-cluster environment, giving you the opportunity to demonstrate practical expertise across administration, automation, security, and disaster recovery. 

 

What Skills Are Measured?

The NCM-MCI 7.5 Beta exam is organized around five advanced skill domains:

  • Monitoring & Troubleshooting
  • Optimize & Scale
  • Security
  • Design Implementation
  • Business Continuity 

You can expect to work with Prism Central, Nutanix APIs, CLI tools, Flow networking and security, and disaster recovery technologies. The exam focuses heavily on real-world problem solving rather than theoretical knowledge. 

Key skills include:

  • Diagnosing performance issues, interpreting alerts, running health checks, collecting logs, and creating custom reports and monitoring dashboards. 
  • Planning cluster growth, applying workload-specific best practices, optimizing VM and storage configurations, and automating administrative tasks using APIs and Playbooks. 
  • Implementing security controls such as RBAC, network segmentation, Flow Network Security, authentication, certificate management, Syslog integration, and encryption. 
  • Configuring storage, networking, resiliency, and availability features to meet business requirements, including VPCs, load balancers, VM high availability, and data resiliency settings. 
  • Creating and troubleshooting protection policies, replication configurations, recovery plans, and disaster recovery workflows that meet application RPO and RTO requirements. 

For complete exam details, review the NCM-MCI 7.5 Beta Exam Blueprint Guide.

@Mohammed Rafi Shaikh 

You will only see the Nutanix Certified Master - Multicloud Infrastructure (NCM-MCI) exam on your exam dashboard if you have an active Nutanix Certified Professional (NCP) or Nutanix Certified Mater (NCM) certification. If you have one of those certifications and it is not showing up in your account, please send an email to university@nutanix.com.

@Suzanne DeWitt ,

I am receiving the following error message at the final stage of the booking process:

“An unexpected error occurred on the server. 0HNNOJPDCPOJT:00000123”

The page also displays “An unexpected error occurred. Please restart the booking process.”

I have restarted the booking process and tried again, but the same error occurs at the final stage.

@dn1991 

Your best study resource is the NCM-MCI 7.5 Beta Exam Blueprint Guide.

Alternatively, you can wait for the live exam to come out, which will be supported by an updated version of the AAPM 7.5 course.

The beta exam results will be published in mid-October.
