微软认证解决方案开发人员

微软认证解决方案开发人员(Microsoft Certified Solution Developer, MCSD)与 MCSE并列为微软二大高阶认证之一,其认证方向是以程式开发人员(Developer)为主,通过此认证考试的专业人员会被视为具有使用微软应用平台,程式语言与技术发展企业解决方案的人员,由于目标是针对企业解决方案,因试科目较著重于企业应用程式的开发,并不会太过于重视软体发展方法,以及程式语言本身。

第一代的MCSD

早期的MCSD是以WOSA(Windows Open System Architecture)为主,考验开发人员对Windows环境的熟悉度,然后搭配两科与应用程序开发有关的考试作为选考科目,当时微软将MFC以及OLE开发等纳入选考科目中,以及当时初次进入认证考试Visual Basic 5.0产品。

第二代的MCSD

MCSD on Visual Studio 6.0

编辑

在Visual Studio 6.0(1998年6月发行)发表的时期,微软对于MCSD认证的要求做了大幅的修改,其主要原因是Windows DNA架构的发展,以及分散式应用程序的发展等,同时首次把系统分析的项目纳入MCSD的测试范围,因此核心考科定为三科,选考科目为一科。同时微软第一次将Visual FoxPro纳入考试科目中,但也是最后一次。

  • 必考科目,系统分析类:
    • Exam 70-100: Analyzing Requirement and Defining Solution Architecture

  • 首次,也是唯一一次的Outlook和Exchange Server交互应用的考试。

MCSD on Microsoft .NET

编辑

.NET Framework推出时,MCSD也顺势升级到Microsoft .NET(2002年正式发行)技术,同时也调整考试的测验方向,切割为Windows应用程式,Web应用程式以及分散式应用程式的考试科目,同时仍然要测验系统分析的能力,MCSD on Microsoft .NET的考试科目即扩增到五科。

  • 必考科目,系统分析类:
    • Exam 70-300: Analyzing Requirement and Defining Microsoft .NET Solution Architecture
  • 必考科目,Windows应用程式开发(择一应考):

第三代的MCSD

编辑

配合云端化以及服务导向架构的推展,微软于2012年重新启用了MCSD,是聚焦服务化后的微软认证中唯一名称未变的认证。

首波推出了MCSD: Windows Store Apps以及MCSD: Web Application两种,Windows Store Apps以开发Windows 8平台的Windows Store Apps[1]为主,并区分为JavaScript以及C# 两条认证路径:

  • JavaScript路径:
    • Exam 70-480: Programming in HTML5 with CSS3 and JavaScript
    • Exam 70-481: Essentials of Developing Windows Store Apps using HTML5 and JavaScript
    • Exam 70-482: Advanced Windows Store Apps Development using HTML5 and JavaScript
  • C# 路径:
    • Exam 70-483: Programming in C#
    • Exam 70-484: Essentials of Developing Windows Store Apps using C#
    • Exam 70-485: Advanced Windows Store Apps Development using C#
  • 升级考(JavaScript路径):
    • 前置需求:MCPD: Windows Developer 4
    • Exam 70-480: Programming in HTML5 with CSS3 and JavaScript
    • Exma 70-490: Upgrade your MCPD: Windows Developer to MCSD: Windows Store Apps using HTML5
  • 升级考(C# 路径):
    • 前置需求:MCPD: Windows Developer 4
    • Exam 70-483: Programming in C#
    • Exma 70-491: Upgrade your MCPD: Windows Developer to MCSD: Windows Store Apps using C#

MCSD: Web Application则是聚焦于Web Application的开发,但变革较大的是,ASP.NET MVC应用程式占了较大的范畴,且应用程式会以MVC架构为主,因此思维会变化很大,同时也会考验Windows Azure以及WCF服务开发的能力。

  • Exam 70-480: Programming in HTML5 with CSS3 and JavaScript
  • Exam 70-486: Developing ASP.NET 4.5 MVC Applications
  • Exam 70-487: Developing Windows Azure and Web Services
  • 升级考:
  • 前置需求:MCPD: Web Developer 4
  • Exam 70-480: Programming in HTML5 with CSS3 and JavaScript
  • Exma 70-492: Upgrade your MCPD: Web Developer to MCSD: Web Application

相关认证

编辑

由于微软新一代认证阶层的推展,MCSD已由MCPD取代,但现行的MCSD on Microsoft .NET与MCSD on Visual Studio 6.0仍为永久有效。

此认证的继承者为:

  • MCPD: Web Developer
  • MCPD: Windows Developer
  • MCPD: Enterprise Application Developer

在2012年,微软重新使用了MCSD名称(即第三代MCSD),因此MCPD将逐渐走入历史。
