After almost 9 years using AWS in my work as a systems administrator, I have decided to earn the AWS Certified Solutions Architect and AWS Certified Sysops Administrator certifications. In the certification process I will learn a lot of things and I will know others that are not necessary for me at work.

My goal is to periodically post the topics I will be discussing on the blog as I prepare for the aws solutions architect certification exam.


What AWS certifications are there?


Today there are 9 AWS certification exams:

Certified Cloud Partitioner

Developer Associate

Solutions Architect Associate

Sysops Administrator

Security Specialist

Big Data Specialist

Advanced Networking Specialty

Devops Pro

Solutions Architect Professional

In my case, I am interested in Solutions Architect and Sysops Administrator. To access the Professional level exams it is necessary to have a current Associate certification, so I will first go to Solutions Architect Associate and then to Sysops Administrator Associate.

It is possible that later I will be encouraged to go for Developer Associate, but I will think about that when the time comes and when I have with me the other two that interest me the most. I am a system administrator, not a 100% developer.

Are aws solutions architect certification easy?

I'll update this post when I get them, but I don't think they are super difficult. It's a matter of having flight hours on AWS (I use certain AWS services on a daily basis at work) and organizing for learning.

For the Solutions Architect Associate certification, approximately 30 hours of dedication to prepare it are estimated.

How to prepare for the AWS certification exams

I will use the following resources to prepare for the exams:

 

They are excellent courses and they don't cost a lot of money for all the information they provide. The tutor offers the information well organized in English.

How much do AWS exams cost?

Taking the exam costs $ 150 and entitles you to one try. There is an official Amazon test exam that can help you get an idea of ​​what the real one will be like. This mock exam contains real questions and costs US $ 20. Here are some free sample questions .

What will the posts consist of?

I am going to try to leave all the information that I am studying in order to prepare for the first exam, aws solutions architect certification. There will be an especially cumbersome topic to explain on a blog, such as IAM, but usually I will try to cover as much as possible.
