Beginners welcome: no need to know anything about AWS!
The AWS Certified Solutions Architect certification is one of the most challenging exams. It's great at assessing how well you understand not just AWS, but making sure you are making the best architectural decisions based on situations, which makes this certification incredibly valuable to have and pass. Rest assured, I've passed it myself with the score of 982 out of 1000. Yes you read that right, I only made one mistake! Next, I want to help YOU pass the AWS Solutions Architect certification with flying colors.
This is going to be a long journey, but passing the AWS Certified Solutions Architect exam will be worth it!
This course is different from the other ones you'll find on Udemy. Dare I say, better (but you'll judge!)
We will spend over three hours discussing solution architecture on AWS in depth.
It covers in depth all the new topics on the AWS Certified Solutions Architect SAA-C01 exam
It's packed with practical knowledge on how to use AWS inside and out as a solutions architect
