AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner Certification

I'm thrilled to announce that I've earned the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner certification, marking a significant milestone in my cloud computing journey. This accomplishment underscores my commitment to mastering AWS fundamentals and expanding my skills.

I've had some hands-on experience setting up servers in past jobs, and I've read a handful of AWS books, which gave me a good foundation to build on.

Exam Preparation

I had a tight deadline with my free Udemy subscription running out, so I covered the whole Steven Maarek's course in just a week. His explanations were very detailed and really helped me grasp AWS concepts, but I did have to dig a bit deeper into architecture design on my own.

To ensure I was fully prepared, I dedicated another week to solving practice problems. A particular strategy I adopted was intentionally submitting the exam with no answers to see the detailed explanations in a complete form, which significantly enhanced my understanding of the reasoning behind all the responses. This was also because my free subscription was expiring soon, but it worked out well to review problems like this. Unlike the free dump sites like ExamTopics full of incorrect answers, I think this guarantees the correct information.

Result

Immediately after completing the exam, I received the outcome on the screen. The AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner badge now proudly displayed on my LinkedIn profile symbolizes not just a professional achievement but also a commitment to continuous learning and growth in cloud computing.

I'm excited to dive deeper into AWS architecture design and further hone my skills in cloud solutions. Stay tuned for more updates on my cloud computing journey!
