Thank you for sharing this - one of the most important things I saw when doing my preparation for the exam was simply trying it out in the console.

What would you say the biggest difference between the Developer and Solution Architect?

I passed my Developer exam earlier in the week and are now preparing to do the Solution Architect, so any input it appreciated.

The Developer Associate was more focussed on developer operations (CI/CD, ECS, Containers, Serverless, Dynamo DB) where as Solutions Architect will have more scenario based questions from the aspect of a Solutions Architect (which group services to prefer over the other, services to choose for cost optimization or performance optimization). I hope that gives you an idea.
