AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Professional is AWS's professional-level cloud computing certification, sat as exam SAP-C02. The exam runs for 3 hours and presents up to 75 questions, with a pass mark of 750 / 1000 (scaled). It costs US$300 at the standard rate.
AWS publishes the syllabus as 4 weighted domains. Design for New Solutions carries the most weight at 29%, and the three largest domains together account for roughly 80% of the scored content — worth knowing before you decide where study time goes.
SAP-C02 is a reading exam as much as a technical one. Questions are long scenarios with several viable answers, and the correct option is usually the one that satisfies every stated constraint — including the ones buried in the third paragraph.
