From the course: AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-C02) Cert Prep: 3 Cloud Technology and Services

AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam

- [Instructor] The AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam is the only Foundational level AWS certification exam available from Amazon Web Services. It serves to validate a candidate's foundational knowledge of the AWS cloud. In September 2023, the exam was updated from exam code CLF-C01 to CLF-C02. With the exam code change came some substantial updates that we will go over in this four-part course series. The AWS CLF-C02 is a multiple-choice or multiple-response question exam that is pass or fail. The exam is catered towards cloud beginners and those who don't necessarily have a background in IT. It covers AWS concepts, security and compliance, core AWS services, and the economics of the AWS cloud. There is no prior experience in the AWS cloud required for someone to prepare for and sit for this exam. The AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam is divided into four domains: cloud concepts, which makes up 24% of the exam; security and compliance, which makes up 30% of the exam; cloud technology and services, which makes up 34% of the exam; and billing, pricing, and support, which makes up 12% of the exam. Each of the four courses in this series maps to a specific domain in the exam. Let's dig deeper into the specific domain this course maps to.
