Microsoft Certified Solutions Expert (MCSE)
2012 年至2013年，微软将要发布大量的升级产品，它们分别是SQL Server 2012、System center 2012、Windows server 2012、Windows 8、Offce 2013、Exchange 2013、Lync 2013、Sharepoin 2013。随着新产品的发布，微软的新一代认证体系也随之产生，微软取消了上一代认证体系架构，升级后的体系架构是 MCSA—>MCSE—>MCSM，除了MCSM无法在国内考，必须参加微软原厂美国培训外，另外这种架构不包含Office 2013体系，Office 2013稍有不同。
MCSE: Server Infrastructure
This
certification focuses on advanced configuration and network design with
Windows Server 2012, and is the presumed successor to the old MCSE and MCITP: Enterprise Administrator certs:
MCSA: Windows Server 2012 (Prerequisite) (MCSA考试有两种，一种是全新的，要考3门，一种是升级的，只需要考70-417)
70-413 – Designing and Implementing a Server Infrastructure
70-414 – Implementing an Advanced Server Infrastructure
MCSE: Desktop Infrastructure
This track focuses on desktop administration with Windows 8 in an enterprise environment, much like MCITP: Enterprise Desktop Administrator certification on Windows 7:
MCSA: Windows Server 2012 (Prerequisite)
70-415 – Implementing a Desktop Infrastructure
70-416 – Implementing Desktop Application Environments
MCSE: Private Cloud
Microsoft
has announced a new certification which focuses on managing a ‘private
cloud’ – applications and services spread across multiple servers, or
even in a cluster – with a single management interface. This
certification focuses on the use of Microsoft System Center 2012 for management:
MCSA: Windows Server 2008 (Prerequisite) / MCSA: Windows Server 2012 (Prerequisite)
70-247 – Configuring and Deploying a Private Cloud with System Center 2012
70-246 – Monitoring and Operating a Private Cloud with System Center 2012
MCSE: Data Platform
MCSA: SQL Server 2012 (Prerequisite)
70-464 – Developing Microsoft SQL Server 2012 Databases
70-465 – Designing Database Solutions for Microsoft SQL Server 2012
MCSE: Business Intelligence
MCSA: SQL Server 2012 (Prerequisite)
70-466 – Implementing Data Models and Reports with Microsoft SQL Server 2012
70-467 – Designing Business Intelligence Solutions with Microsoft SQL Server 2012
MCSE: Messaging
MCSA: Windows Server 2012 (Prerequisite)
70-341 – Core Solutions of Microsoft Exchange Server 2013
70-342 – Advanced Solutions of Microsoft Exchange Server 2013
MCSE: Communication
MCSA: Windows Server 2012 (Prerequisite)
70-336 – Core Solutions of Microsoft Lync Server 2013
70-337 – Enterprise Voice & Online Services with Microsoft Lync Server 2013
MCSE: SharePoint
MCSA: Windows Server 2012 (Prerequisite)
70-331 – Core Solutions of Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013
70-332 – Advanced Solutions of Microsoft SharePoint Server 2013
At the time of this writing, there is no direct upgrade-path from MCITP: Enterprise Administrator to MCSE: Server Infrastructure, or any of the other new MCSE tracks. If you hold any of the qualifying certifications, taking exam 70-417 will earn you MCSA: Windows Server 2012, and you are required to sit for the remaining two exams in order to become MCSE certified.
