AWS Certification Paths
AWS was named a Leader as an IaaS & PaaS provider in the 2021 Gartner Magic Quadrant Cloud IaaS report.
Being AWS certified means that you have successfully demonstrated your proficiency in Amazon Web Services through a formal evaluation process. You can find a range of AWS certifications that validate different levels of skills, from foundational knowledge to specialized technical proficiency. Credible certifications like those from ExitCertified or Amazon’s own AWS training and certification program are widely recognized by employers in the information technology industry.
The typical path to AWS certification is designed to help you progress from foundational knowledge to advanced expertise in AWS services as efficiently as possible. One of the initial certifications on this path is the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, which serves as an entry point for beginners. The foundational knowledge gained from this certification is essential for understanding the core concepts and terminology used throughout the AWS ecosystem, such as AWS global infrastructure, security, billing, and best practices. After you’ve become an AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner, you can then choose from a variety of AWS learning paths based on your interests and goals. For example, you could pursue the AWS Solution Architect - Associate certification path, which focuses on designing and deploying scalable and reliable AWS solutions. Alternatively, you could explore the AWS Certified Developer - Associate path to learn about developing and maintaining AWS-based applications. There are also paths for AWS Certified SysOps Administrators and AWS Certified DevOps Engineers - Professional that cater to the unique needs of careers in system administration and automation. These paths include in-depth training, hands-on exercises, and practical projects to help you reinforce your knowledge.
AWS Certification Benefits
Getting AWS certified is beneficial for several reasons. First of all, certification enhances your career prospects by making your skill set more marketable to potential employers. Many organizations value AWS-certified professionals highly, and possessing a certification can lead to increased job opportunities and potential salary advancements.

Which AWS Certification Is Best for Developers?
The best AWS certification for developers depends on their specific roles and career goals. If you’re interested in designing and deploying scalable solutions on AWS, the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate may be the right starting point for you. On the other hand, if your role focuses on application development and maintenance, the AWS Certified Developer Associate is probably a better fit for you.
No matter which courses are right for you, each different certification represents a unique opportunity for you to showcase your expertise and enhance your career prospects in the rapidly growing cloud computing industry.
