Hi everyone how difficult it is too certified in AWS Developer Associate and Solutions architect.
For someone who has experience in Development
In Java, Spring Boot, Microservices

I also worked on some of the AWS Services like
EKS, ECS, Lambda, S3, RDS, SQS. I mean I use them by going to the Management console. Also has knowledge in VPC, subnets, security groups but i tend to forget some of these concepts.
Didn't take any formal course but learnt from blogs, youtube videos, LinkedIn course

Not that tough… udemy stephane mareek course for of these certs and jon bonso practice exams are enough… both certs should be done within 1 month as the syllabus is 60% same

I passed certified developer associate exam this year. It took me 2 months to prepare daily would say 2hrs. For latest questions you can refer to examtopics website and practice tests by John Bonso on udemy. For content Stephan maarek's course on udemy is pretty amazing.

You should try developer associate certification if you are from development background. Solution architect certification is for those guys who wants to make career on infra side. Thats will be more on infra designing and giving solution to customers

Solution architect has a wider scope, shallower depth. Encompasses basically all technical aspects of the solution, though may not provide enough detail to be directly implementable. Infrastructure is just a subset of the solution, along application, integrations, and maybe security architecture.

Any idea on AWS courses by in28minutues?

Those are good for learning AWS in general, but udemy courses are specifically targeted towards certification. I did developer associate and then I was planning for architect associate. But realised that there was quite an overlap, so I skipped architect associate and went for architect professional. That one is quite tough - actually a tiring one.
