If you’re planning on earning the extremely valuable?AWS Certified Solutions Architect Professional certification, you need to know that AWS are just?about to release?a new version of the exam. The SAP-C02 will replace the SAP-C01 on November 15th 2022.
What’s up with the new exam version?
This new version of the exam includes a?LOT?of?NEW?services! In fact, the SAP-C01 had around 100 services in scope and the SAP-C02 has over 150! That’s a big change for sure, so you’ll need to put in quite a bit of extra time to get your skills up to speed.
What exactly has changed?
Let’s first look at the domains of the new AWS Certified Solutions Architect Professional?exam guide?and how they compare to the old exam.
As you can see, there are 4 domains rather than 5 in the new exam guide. Cost Control has been removed though services related to this domain are still in scope for the exam. For the other domains, the naming has changed a bit but they are mainly covering the same topics.
Next, we will investigate what new services are appearing on the SAP-C02 version of the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Professional exam. The following services are NEW in the SAP-C02 exam:
Does this mean the exam will be harder?
We believe that the overall difficulty of the exam will not change too much. However, as there are many more services in the new exam – this does pose a challenge will learning these extra services. However, we suspect that for many of the new services you’ll only need to know the high level. Rest assured that the core of the exam will be very similar to the previous exam version.
When will the Digital Cloud Training courses be updated?
We are already in the process of adding new videos and practice tests to our?training courses?to cover the new topics in the AWS Certified Solutions Architect Professional SAP-C02 exam guide. Over the next few weeks, more content will be added as we get first-hand experience of the exam and feedback from our thousands of students.
What do I need to do to prepare for the SAP-C02?
Enroll in the training?for the AWS Solutions Architect Professional that will fully prepare you for your exam. Make sure you watch all new videos marked with [SAP-C02] at the beginning of the lesson name. We’ll remove that tag a few weeks after the new exam is released.

You should also take the practice tests until you are consistently scoring above 80%. To avoid disappointment, it’s best to not book your exam until you have reached this level.

2 年I failed that exam 3 days ago with the 721, but they wanted 750. It’s definitely hard, but I just need to put some more extra time to it. All those services Neal Davis is mentioning can be part of the question, and it’s trickier because you can easily think that the one question came back twice; however, it was a whole different service. Good luck on taking it. I’m waiting for my 14 days Grace period to take again! Thanks Neal Davis for the info and guidance on this.
