Ask HN: AWS Solutions Architect Associate training material

Hi,

I can't seem to find decent training material for the Solutions Architect Associate AWS certification. The official stuff on skillbuilder doesn't seem to cover everything you need - when I look at practise questions, I often struggle because they involve very minute details of a specific and commonly used AWS service like EC2.

My question is - for those who have done it or are thinking about doing it - what full courses would you do? Preferably not these ridiculously priced ones that are regurgitated from somewhere else anyway - I don't think the people of HN are privy to paying $5,000 for level CompTIA crap.

Another question would be whether I'm misunderstanding the point of the "Solutions Architect" certification range - is it the point that it's not full of stuff you can learn in one fell swoop?

https://learn.cantrill.io/p/aws-certified-solutions-architec... I I highly recommend Adrian Cantill's courses. They are in-depth and easy to understand.

I was able to pass four AWS certifications and learning a ton in the process by taking courses on https://acloudguru.com/ and lots of practice on AWS itself.

Highly recommend acloud. I would use them again to re-up my certs as well.
