I guess if you can keep up the speed of learning you should be able to do one certification every two months?

The cloud practitioner isn't that complex and it will provide you with a fifty percent voucher.

But experience with the topics/services will definitely help.

Recently I passed my saa-c03 exam. I took the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate SAA-C03 practice test from p2pexams. It helped me a lot while preparing for my exam.

Choosing the right AWS certification exam depends on your experience, interests, and career goals. Ideal for individuals designing and deploying scalable systems on AWS. It covers various aspects of cloud architecture. Focuses on developing and maintaining applications on the AWS platform, emphasizing programming and AWS services integration and get Term papers there. This is an advanced-level certification focusing on more complex scenarios and in-depth architectural knowledge. Select the certification aligned with your current skills, job role, and the direction you want to move in your career. If you're new to AWS, starting with the Cloud Practitioner or Associate-level certifications might be beneficial. For those with experience, aiming for Professional-level certifications could be a good challenge.
