***
Meet your new AWS study buddy: Andy Barnes!

Abstract:
Getting AWS Certified is not just a piece of paper that you can just purchase and claim a fancy title. AWS Certified means that you are proficient in understanding how to apply your knowledge in building solutions that are resilient, reliable, scalable, cost-effective, and highly available. In this talk, Andy Barnes will focus on tips and best practices to becoming AWS Certified. How hard are the tests? What are the questions like? How can one study for it? What certification(s) are right for you?

Andy will address these questions and share his experiences while giving you a better idea of how it all works. Throughout the talk, he will have a few example exam questions that range in difficulty that will test your knowledge on serverless technologies! We hope to see you there!
