Govardhani Ethirajan says
Hi Can the oracle functional consultant can go take this ? Do we need any prerequisite on any of other cloud infrastructure knowledge to take this ?
Sanjana Gupta says
Hi Govardhani,
As an Oracle functional consultant, you can certainly go for the Oracle Cloud Infrastructure (OCI) 1072 certification. The OCI 1072 certification is specifically designed for individuals who work with OCI services as part of their job role, including functional consultants.
While there are no strict prerequisites for the OCI 1072 certification, it is recommended that you have a basic understanding of cloud computing concepts and Oracle Cloud Infrastructure. This will help you better grasp the topics covered in the certification exam and enhance your chances of success. It would be beneficial to familiarize yourself with OCI services, such as compute, storage, networking, and security.
Hope this helps
Thanks and Regards
