In the exam, there are five domains that have been defined by AWS that you will be assessed against, each with a different percentage weighting level, as shown in the following table:
Domain |
Weighting level |
Incident response |
12% |
Logging and monitoring |
20% |
Infrastructure security |
26% |
Identity and access management |
20% |
Data protection |
22% |
Attention must be paid to each domain to ensure you feel confident and comfortable with the topics, services, and features that may crop up in your exam. Let me break down these domains further to allow you to gain a deeper understanding of exactly what is tested within each domain.
