I completed the AWS Solutions Architect Associate exam in November 2017, after about eight weeks study, with a score of 85%.
Below are a series links to blog posts containing all my study notes, and finally, another blog post containing my thoughts on the exam, as well as some exam feedback and tips for those who will sit the exam after me.
I’ve been hosting this blog on Amazon S3 for a few months now, and thought it would be a good idea to write about how it’s set up, in case future me needs to refer to it, and to give pointers to anybody else who is interested in setting up their own website using Amazon S3, HTTPS, and the CloudFlare CDN.
Hosting this website costs cents per month, and avoids security risks of other blog platforms such as Wordpress by being purely static, consisting just regular HTML files, JavaScript, and images; which means no PHP, .NET, etc. This works well with what I need in a blog.
After heaps of study, I passed AWS Solutions Architect Associate exam, with an overall score of 85%.
Here are my notes on how I studied for the exam, and tips for preparing based on my experience in the actual exam.
