This hands-on oriented Course provides over 40 hours of interactive content comprised of hands-on labs, video courses, and a preparation exam. This training content has been carefully created to help you study for this AWS certification. The certification demands that the candidate demonstrates the ability to architect and deploy AWS solutions for different scenarios following AWS's best practices. The AWS Solution Architect Professional Certification requires its candidates to be comfortable architecting, securing, migrating, optimizing deployments and managing full production operations on AWS.  

Intended Audience 

This course is suitable for those wanting to pass the latest version of the AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Professional (SAP-C02) Certification Exam.

Prerequisites

This is one of the two Professional level certifications available with AWS and its guided to those who already have experience with AWS, and ideally, have already passed the AWS Solutions Architect - Associate exam, but this is not a prerequisite in taking this certification. 

What's Included

This course includes 11 high definition video courses, 20 hands-on lab challenges, 5 hands-on labs, 3 blog/ebook resources, and a final preparation exam. 

Learning Objectives

The aim of the certification is to validate your knowledge across a number of different key areas, which have been defined by AWS as being able to:

  • Design and deploy dynamically scalable, highly available, fault-tolerant, and reliable applications on AWS
  • Select appropriate AWS services to design and deploy an application based on given requirements
  • Migrate complex, multi-tier applications on AWS
  • Design and deploy enterprise-wide scalable operations on AWS
  • Implement cost-control strategies 

As a means of demonstrating this knowledge, you will be tested across 4 different domains, with each domain contributing to a total percentage of your overall score. These domains are broken down as:

Domain 1: Design Solutions for Organizational Complexity 26%

Domain 2: Design for New Solutions 29%

Domain 3: Continuous Improvement for Existing Solutions 25%

Domain 4: Accelerate Workload Migration and Modernization 20%

As you progress through the course, you will gain all the information and knowledge required to fulfill the domain expectations, gaining a deep understanding of each area.
