I recently cleared the Cloud Practitioner and since I am mainly a Java developer.. I was planning on taking the Aws developer associate. Should I take the associate solution architect before this? Also any help on how to prepare for the AWS Developer Associate?
Hi @iamankitp20, I usually recommend starting with the AWS Solutions Architect Associate, as it provides a strong foundational understanding of AWS services. However, there's no fixed rule about the order—you can prioritize based on your goals and interests.
For the AWS Developer Associate, I prepared using AWS Skill Builder course. If you're less experienced with building applications on AWS, I recommend exploring hands-on AWS workshops or the enhanced Skill Builder course (paid), which includes labs to solidify your understanding.
Hey, Thanks for sharing this. I am interested in taking the AWS practitioner certification. Do you have any courses to learn as a beginner? Thanks
Hi @douglasfugazi, it's great to see your interest in AWS exams! If you're a beginner, I recommend starting with the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam.
A fantastic way to prepare is by using AWS Cloud Quest, which provides guided, hands-on experience. For the Cloud Practitioner path, it's free to use (note that other paths may require a subscription). At the end of your learning journey, you'll be ready to earn the certification.
Here's a direct link to get started:

Good luck on your AWS learning journey!
I just want to add that you will also get a unique badge when you complete the tasks, this is an added value that is different from the certification badge.
Thank you Elizabeth. I will check it out.
Great post! Really appreciate the way you’ve laid out the path from beginner to pro. If anyone is planning to take any AWS certification, I highly recommend using the AWS practice tests designed by P2PExams. They are extremely helpful for both preparation and passing the exam. I’ve had a great experience with this platform myself and found it very effective.
All this certificate was achieved in 1year ?
Hi @usalih, I completed 3 certifications in 2022, 3 more in 2023, 2 earlier this year, and the last 4 just this past week.
Very informative
