The AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate certification is one of the most challenging exams. It's great at assessing how well you understand not just AWS, but how to administer it and troubleshoot issues, which makes this certification incredibly valuable to have and pass. Rest assured, I've passed it myself with a score of 980 out of 1000. Yes, you read that right, I only made one mistake! Next, I want to help YOU pass the AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer Associate certification with flying colors.

reuses old videos for topics not specific to SOA-CO3, they have poor audio quality speaker pauses at times and breaks up the listening flow, even on 2x quiz has questions on topics not shown in video or slides
