AWS has launched a new certification program like Microsoft’s, Novell’s and VMware’s.
There will be courses available through AWS Training and certification will involve an independently verified test on AWS best practices and the applicant’s proficiency in designing, building, deploying and maintaining applications and services on the AWS Cloud.
Test center sponsor Kryterion will act as the verifier; it has testing centers in 100 countries.
There will be three certifications: Solutions Architect, SysOps Administrator and Developer. The first will be architect. The two others will follow later this year.
