Sat the AWS Certified DevOps Engineer - Professional Exam last this afternoon. The exam is hard, as it scenario based. Most of the exam questions were to pick the best solution for deployments which comprised CloudFormation, Elastic Beanstalk and OpsWorks. Every one of those questions had 2 good answers, it came down to which was more correct based on the keywords cost, speed, redundancy, roll back capabilities.
I did the course on acloud.guru and a lot of AWS pages. At some point I will make a page of all the links I collected when studying for this exam.
The exam took me about two-thirds of the allowed time, I read fast and have a tendency to flag questions I don’t know the answer to and come back later and work thru them. This exam, I flagged 20 questions. Most of them I could figure out, once I thought about them for a while. But flagging questions and going back helps manage the time.
Upon submission, I got the “Congratulations! You have successfully completed the AWS Certified DevOps Engineer - Professional…”
I got my score email very quickly:
Overall Score: 82%
Topic Level Scoring:
| 1.0 |
Continuous Delivery and Process Automation: |
79% |
| 2.0 |
Monitoring, Metrics, and Logging: |
87% |
| 3.0 |
Security, Governance, and Validation: |
75% |
| 4.0 |
High Availability and Elasticity: |
91% |
That now makes my 7th AWS Certification.
