    Certs are mostly required for cloud partners jobs . Badge - no one really know what is it

      This is not entirely true. Cloud certs are useful for large number of AWS jobs at partners and direct customers and even at AWS. Indeed badges are new, that’s the reason to get them now before they become popular (and they are free and non expiring!)

    Thank you Sir! It is a big relief. I haven't done a single certification and still was able to take my career to a fairly well stage. But all around the UA-cam and LinkedIn, certifications are being shown as an essential to move to cloud. It gave me a depression and a feeling of inferiority. I will definitely take these badges and I am confident I will be able to get the knowledge as i never cheat with learning. Thank you!

    I certainly would like something more focused, I work with integration, and to get one of those cloud certifications I have to deep dive in subjects that I barely see on the daily basis ... unfortunately, I don't have more the time or energy to cram for certifications ...

    • @cloudwithraj
      @cloudwithraj  4 місяці тому

      100%!! As a specialist myself, I hate spending time on services I never interact with. That's why I like these badges. Thankfully there is no pre-requisite for these specialized badges of having some certain cert first

      It is free for these knowledge badges. There are other courses in skill builder (such as builder labs) which costs money.

    Hi Raj, came across your channel today and must say, content is really helpful. Thanks. I am struggling to decide my career approach. Currently, I have 3+ experience in AWS Infrastructure support and have hands on few AWS services. Do I need to learn programming to become an architect? Which next certification should I aim after AWS solution architect? Thanks in advance.
