A Cloud Guru – Certified Solutions Architect – Associate 2018.There are also different non-official training available, I did two of them: Notice that attending an official training for this exam is not mandatory. The course is delivered in a live classroom environment or through a virtual classroom. There’s an official 3 day AWS training called Architecting on AWS, which will prepare you for the exam.
When you’re new to AWS the exam can be challenging, so be sure to spent enough time to study on all subjects that are covered. It’s more a matter of ‘you just have to know’ what is asked. The AWS Solution Architect Associate exam covers a broad range of AWS solutions, however the individual questions are not that difficult.
The beta exam has 80 questions, is 150 minutes in length and you will get your results in 3 months after you did the exam. You have to score at least 70%, and the exam is focussed on scenario based questions. I took the classic exam, which had (in my case) 55 questions and is 80 minutes in length. The are a few differences between these exams in regards to the number of questions, length, cost and also in terms of what is asked. In this article I will share my experiences and provide you with some advice in regards to this exam.Ĭurrently there are two versions of the AWS SA associate exam available, the ‘classic’ exam and the ‘new’ exam, currently in beta. Last week I sat and passed the AWS Solution Architect Associate exam.
