Why is it important to start learning about the cloud?
Imran Tauqir: All the data centers are moving to the cloud, to public cloud. So you need to learn this new technology in order to stay up-to-date in the market. And of course, it's a new challenge. So you need to shift whatever you learned from Cisco CCIE to the new cloud technology. And of course, Aviatrix is the main vendor in this space.
Why did you decide to get involved in the ACE Program?
Imran Tauqir: I think ACE is one of the top cloud certifications. I think it enhanced my skills, enhanced my marketability, enhanced my confidence in front of customers, and in front of partners. Of course, ACE has enhanced my knowledge as well. So you're confident, and you're like a superhero, and customers respect you. You have that kind of rigorous training and you were rewarded. So customers love it.
