AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner Study Guide With 500 Practice Test Questions: Foundational (CLF-C02) Exam (Sybex Study Guide)

One of two key resources that helped me pass the exam. Easy to read and decent exercises.

Perfect book for those in school

Very good text book to prepare for CCP. Gets all the core areas covered and explained in a clear and detailed manner. However as of early 2024, some materials needs to be updated in order for this book to work alone: 1. Practice questions are out of date. For example: Pricing calculation directly on the tiers was replaced with estimation for the most savings; There is increased amount of questions on the global vs regional service types; and heavy emphasis on EC2 server type costs, as well as new testing points on all the AI products (Polly, Lex, Transcribe...etc.). 2. The category grouping (1 chapter with multiple listed testing categories) is not reader-friendly, so review contents by test category is not possible 3. A few questions are still having wrong answers. Use this to learning the basics, if you want full confidence to pass the exam, please go find another set of mock exams online to accompany this book.

Starting AWS was not as easy as I expected. Since starting reading this book, made my AWS cloud concepts well orchestrated and on top of it are very high yield questions /answers at end of each chapter.Recommend for anyone who wants to start a AWS cloud journey.

Not a bad book, but it is sloppy. The end of chapter answer key is not always correct. I found the same questions in the earlier version of the book had exactly the same problems. If they are going to update the book for a new release you would think they would at least fix the problems they found in the earlier version.

The guide is well-structured, making it easy to follow along, even if you're completely new to AWS. I also appreciated the detailed explanations provided for each practice question, which help you understand why certain answers are correct or incorrect. If you're looking to get your AWS Cloud Practitioner certification, this study guide is a fantastic investment!

The content in the books is a decent read, and will generally prepare you for the exam.However, there were several topics on the exam that were either barely touched on in the book or not at all.Additionally, as many reviewers here have mentioned, the questions are not great. They didn't feel like the exam questions, and many are outright contradictory with the body of the book (someone proofed this, right?).

Used this book for my certification exam and passed on the first try
