How did I Pass AWS Certified Developer Associate (AWS CDA) Exam?

Whizlabs aims to provide study materials and best practices and the latest in

accordance with the latest updates from Amazon web services. So, I became a

member of the WHIZLABS AWS expert team, took (and passed with a score of

92/1000) the AWS certified developer association exam again to track the latest

changes in the AWS developer association certification exam and check whether the

Whizlabs AWS CDA Online course is good enough to pass the exam CDA AWS

certification.

The Association Exam of the AWS Developer Certification is one of three association

level certification offered by the Amazon web service. This helps the candidates to

show it

- Understanding the core AWS service, its use, and the best practices of the Basic

AWS architecture

using AWS

Preparation for the Developer Certified AWS Association Exam

My main preparation resources for the AWS Developer Associate Developer

Certification Exam is the online course whizlabs AWS CDA which provides a

focused content to pass the CDA AWS exam in the first attempt. This course provides

15+ clocks of training videos with several interactive laboratories along with direct

practice labs to get real time experience.

Certification Exam which includes a comprehensive set of videos under the following

sections:

After completing the video online, I also tried Whizlabs AWS CDA Practice Tests to

check if I was ready. I tried the training test 2 times, scored 80% above in the first

effort while 90% above in the second attempt and in the real test.

services to build applications for real-time than understanding theoretical concepts.

You will find many questions based on direct scenario. Questions are concentrated on

application development and deployment. So, while preparing the AWS developer

association exam, don't forget to make your hands dirty on the AWS platform with

AWS services.

Fortunately, I will discuss all of these topics in online courses, and a little I remember

because I have also taken another AWS certification exam. Overall, the online course

includes all the AWS Developer certification test domains, along with several

additional topics that can help you in the preparation of your AWS developer
