I have been working with IBM AIX for almost 28 years, starting with v3.2.5. Over the years I have considered taking the various certification exams that IBM used to offer but never got around to organising it.
It was time to start putting everything we learnt during the course together. We each worked through a scenario where we were performing a Periodic Inspection and Test (PIAT) on an old aluminium cylinder.
I sat my AWS Certified Solutions Architect - Associate exam on Friday. I knew I had passed when I had finished, but I had to wait a couple of days for the score, my certificate and my badge.
