Want to become AWS Certified, but don't know where to start?

#AWSCertified #100DaysOfCloud

🧵🧵 Thread 🧵🧵
Why should you get certified?

If you want to market yourself as a professional AWS Cloud user. You'll find that getting certified gives a form of acknowledgement.

But I do recommend everyone to get practical experience and go build things, that's how you learn the most!
Getting started:

If you're new to Cloud technology go for the easiest certification - AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner

If you have a technical background and you're familiar with the terminology, go with - AWS Certified Developer associate.
My ranking from least to most challenging exams:

* Cloud Practitioner
* Developer – Associate
* Solutions Architect – Associate
* SysOps Administrator – Associate
* Security – Specialty
* Solutions Architect - Professional
* Advanced Networking – Specialty
Get the right resources when you start out:

AWS Well-Architected Framework: shorturl.at/pqH59
AWS Reinvent videos: shorturl.at/uADGJ
AWS Documentation: shorturl.at/zABCO
AWS Free digital training: shorturl.at/hoPZ3
Scheduling the exam:

Sign up for: aws.training. From here you can schedule AWS exams from a location near you (online is possible as well, but wouldn't recommend it for now).

The average exam costs around $150 and consists of 65 questions with 130 min to complete it
If you want to pass your first AWS Certification on the first try. I would consider to keep an eye out for my tweets because, I'll be sharing an extensive guide with technical details somewhere this week!

Just crossed 35,000 followers on this bird app 🎉

It's been a crazy rollercoaster ride since I started publicly sharing my knowledge and experience about AWS & DevOps around 18 months ago!

Here are a couple of takeaways that skyrocketed my growth 👇
Pick a niche:

Try to narrow down on the amount of topics that you tweet about.

I picked AWS and DevOps mainly because that's what I do for a living as a Cloud Consultant and therefore it has become easier for me to share valuable information and tips.
Stick with it:

Don't cross over to other domains all of a sudden. You might notice that if you start tweeting about something else, the engagement on your tweets drop tremendously.
