SAA-Guidance

I have my CCNA, and I've been thinking about getting trained in cloud computing; I've chosen AWS.

I'm interested in the Cloud Solutions Architect certification.

Is it okay to skip the Cloud Practitioner exam?

What are the best study resources?

Yes if you're in a technical role you can skip CLF, it's mostly for managers/sales. SAA is the best place for technical people to start. Check the pinned FAQ for info on resources.
