MySQL DBA的认证截至当前（2019.8.10）已推出5.7版本的OCP，可点击此处跳转到Oracle education进行查看，网页截图如下。

MySQL 5.7 OCP的考试代号是1Z0-888，120分钟的考试时间需做完75选择题，考题形式为单选和多选，正确率达到58%可通过考试。考试费目前为人民币1077元。如果了解甲骨文认证，一定知道考试内容是纯英文的。

值得一提的是目前MySQL认证不要求有培训经历，相关的训练课程标注了“可选”，见下图，也就是说可以花费一千出头的费用直接参加考试，相对比其他的Oracle认证，这个价格确实是比较便宜。

目前网络上5.7 OCP相关的资料还比较少，在备考上相对Oracle OCP难度稍高，更考验个人的基本功，下面我将考试介绍中大纲部分的内容粘贴如下，共涉及10个主题。

为了方便阅读，我使用了Google浏览器的翻译功能将翻译后的中文页面截图如下，机器翻译仅供参考。

在目前考试资料比较少的情况下，从以上10个主题中出75道考题，对于专职的MySQL DBA来讲也是有一定难度的，关键是纯英文考试。

证书有没有必要考仍然得一分为二的看，根据自身情况，银子够并、精力够就趁早拿下，某些机会的出现不会看技术具体有多好，毕竟靠纯技术流走在技能金字塔顶端的人还是占少数的。
