But the majority of SMBs running Exchange are doing so because they are either just bad at IT, their IT person is doing things intentionally poorly in an attempt to technologically extort career stability from the company and/or someone is operating from an emotional position of fear and lack of understanding of IT. All bad things.
LOL. I'm just trying to figure out if I'm useless, corrupt or over-emotional. Or all three!

Always safer to go with the latter!

Why the latter? I always default to E) All of the above.

After Researching last night I'll be using the study materials for:
Network+
MCSE - Server Infastructure and Private Cloud.
MCSD - Azure Solutions ArchitectThis is based on the information received here. Any other ideas?

I'd add a Linux certification in there, maybe? I'm not sure what all is out there, but definitely check for a Redhat cert of some sort?

@dafyre There is an Azure on Linux cert. That seems like it would be useful if SAM is correct in their direction. Virtualization as well as Configuration Management (Puppet) would be useful.

RHCE is the only major one in the industry. They've put a lot of effort into certification. Everyone else has mostly backed off.

Azure is an odd one for Linux certification. If you are specializing on Linux on Azure, sure. But that's relatively uncommon, especially because Azure is so expensive and poorly performing for Linux workloads.

That's the one I would go with then. Thank you for the information. Would you also recommend a Linux cert in addition to my list?

RHCE would not hurt, it is the MCSE of the Linux world. Lots of good material in it.

Thank you for the input.
