Earn the NetApp credential that validates your ability to implement hybrid cloud solutions using NetApp technologies — covering multi-cloud deployment, data protection with SnapMirror, automation, advanced troubleshooting, workload migration, and modern application deployment in the cloud.
The NS0-402 exam earns the NetApp Certified Hybrid Cloud Implementation Engineer credential — validating the ability to implement hybrid cloud solutions using NetApp technologies. It tests proficiency in deploying, scaling, troubleshooting, monitoring, and managing compute, network, and storage solutions across hybrid cloud environments using various user interfaces and automation tools.
Candidates should have a minimum of 12 months of experience with compute, network, and storage solutions in a hybrid cloud environment. It is strongly recommended to hold the NetApp Certified Hybrid Cloud Administrator (NS0-302) certification before attempting this exam, as NS0-402 builds on administrative knowledge with deeper implementation and automation competencies required at the engineering level.
Deploy NetApp Hybrid Cloud Solutions — implement storage systems and services in hybrid cloud environments, deploy across multiple locations, configure multi-cloud environments, and address customer infrastructure dependencies
Configure Data Protection — implement NetApp Hybrid Cloud data protection solutions, configure SnapMirror between on-premises and cloud environments, and set up cloud backup policies for hybrid workloads
Implement Automation Solutions — configure and implement automation within hybrid cloud environments using NetApp REST APIs, Ansible, Terraform, and BlueXP automation tools; orchestrate end-to-end hybrid cloud workflows
Troubleshoot Hybrid Cloud — troubleshoot storage systems, diagnose hybrid cloud networking issues, resolve security problems, and use advanced diagnostic tools for NetApp cloud services
Perform Cloud Operations — monitor hybrid cloud storage, migrate workloads between environments, deploy modern cloud-native applications, enable data availability for dev/test, and produce customer deliverables
