Beginners welcome: no need to know anything about AWS!
The AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate certification is one of the most challenging exams. It's great at assessing how well you understand not just AWS, but making sure you are making the best architectural decisions based on situations, which makes this certification incredibly valuable to have and pass. Rest assured, I've passed it myself with a score of 982 out of 1000. Yes, you read that right, I only made one mistake! Next, I want to help YOU pass the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate certification with flying colors.
This is going to be a long journey, but passing the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate exam will be worth it!

Great content - a huge amount of well presented info. If each section had an exam tips/exam cram summary it would have had a 5-star rating.
This is the best course on udemy for ' AWS Certified Solutions Architect Associate '. Stephane Maarek has explained in very nice way. Wonderful.
Very good course! I enjoyed it very much. Structured correctly, well explained in good pace and step by step hands-on demonstrations emphasizing the important points for the exam. But most of all I liked the architectural solutions' sections, they are really unique. You are doing great work! Thank you.
This instructor is awesome! He breaks complicated topics in simple form. He is very easy to understand. I did not even bother to look elsewhere for this course. In our company he is everyone's favorite.
Thank you Stephan - thanks to this course i have passed the aws solution architect associate. The course was very thorough and detailed! thank alot! Asaf
Great course! Loved the teaching and the ppts shown were really well made and played well with the lecture timely popping up keeping us focused. Thank you.
This was the second curriculum I have taken to prepare for the SAA certification. It was a much better fit for me than the first curriculum because it provided much more context, background, and level of detail needed for me to properly prepare for the exam since I am not a developer or architect by background (I'm a business analyst by background). Thank you Stephane! See you next year for the Security Certification and the Architect Professional Certification! :)
I have completed one-third of the course and loving it. Content is very well organized to build from basic concepts to more advanced concepts. Also, it is all broken down into digestible chunks across videos. There is no fluff, just straight to the point knowledge and advice to help you pass the exam.
good explanation. can i also know how to associate public ip to DNS so that it may not change after restart of the instance every time.
Cleared the exam yesterday in first attempt.Thanks Stephane for creating such a a amazing course. I really enjoyed your style of teaching. Waiting for solution architect Professional course.
this instructor is amazing. clears the concept very nicely. i think best teacher for this course. very worth course by this teacher.
I like all your courses. Don't even read reviews because based on my learning experience i know your courses are awesome.Thanks Stephane !!
The Course is designed very well and Explanations are to the point. The course is very good for beginners as well as advanced.
I have watched IAM lectures on few other platforms, but Stephane's focus is much better. Second, he gives reasons for why to do or not do something; e.g if IAM credentials end up in wrong hands, someone could mine bitcoin and give you thousands of dollars in bills. Now that kind of reasoning is what will stick to one's mind
The hands on are great examples and the order of information is presented in a way that makes it easy to learn
