What is AWS?
Amazon Web Services (AWS) is a flexible and scalable cloud platform, and one of the most popular suites of distributed applications in the world. Amazon is a powerhouse innovator, and their cutting-edge cloud offering has set the standards for the entire sector.
AWS consists of over 170 services, most notably computing, storage, networking, data centres, machine learning, and analytics. Of these, Amazon Elastic Compute Cloud (EC2) and Amazon Simple Storage Service (Amazon S3) are arguably the most popular cloud services, forming the backbone of modern enterprise-level cloud infrastructures.
AWS Certifications
AWS learning paths consist of foundational, associate, and professional levels, as well as specialty certifications. All paths are optimally designed to teach you how to build highly available, cost-effective and secure applications on the platform. AWS certification validates that you have the knowledge and cloud skills you need to perform your cloud computing role competently.
Benefits of the AWS Certification
The benefits of a certification include:
- Productivity increase in enterprise environments
- High salaries in a high-demand, growing sector

How to Become AWS Certified
All certifications require you to take the corresponding official AWS exam, and are valid for three years from accreditation.
