Quick update

I passed the AWS Solutions Architect Associate (SAA-C03) certification exam! This was a key milestone in my Cloud Mastery Bootcamp journey. I haven’t written much lately — was fully focused on preparing for and passing this certification which let’s be honest is no piece of cake

What’s Next

Now that the SAA exam is behind me, and before jumping straight to the next cert (Developer Associate) I’ll take the time to write some technical deep dives to demonstrate the skills learned first. Planning to build AWS Serverless web tech demos to showcase practical cloud architecture knowledge. Stay tuned!

Why this blog exists

Quick intro

I wanted to learn more about the cloud in general. 2026 will be the year for me on this topic. The past few months I started a couple of certs to understand the basics of k8s & AWS

Kubernetes and Cloud Native Associate (KCNA)
AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner

Gives me enough theory to get started, now slowly ramping up with the next cert

AWS Solutions Architect Associate (SAA)

Goals

The biggest issues I see is that many people take basically the same path, but stop at certifications. I want to go the extra mile > sharing actual implementations & real world projects while I learn. If I don’t do it, I’ll forget it all in a year and wont be able to show any of those skills.
