As we have reached halfway through the year, I decided to look into building up my skills with other cloud vendors. This blog is around AWS. With hyper scalers growing ever so fast and the adoption of public cloud, it was time to learn and get certified to demonstrate my skills.

With VMware on AWS being a great offering for clients to achieve a Hybrid Cloud and being able to leverage the AWS services from the same look at feel of VMware, it was apparent that I start with my AWS Certification journey.

What tracks are out there and where to start.

My aim to achieve the AWS Solutions Architect Professional Certification. I’ve used Skills Builder to start my journey for the AWS Cloud Practitioner Certification. Other resources to be used are:

  • Pluralsight
  • Udemy
  • Whizlabs

Guys, also have a look at Twitch for some great sessions for exam prep with AWS Subject Matter Experts.
