I’ve seen a lot of people trying to explain a concept that they understand but struggle to really grasp the essence of it. So they sound insecure or hesitant to explore the subject. But I love how you sound confident and secure and you know exactly what you’re talking about.

[@2307vineyard]

Superb way of explaining the good vs avg answers. The key approach is to don’t mug up too much & spill haphazardly rather explaining something small in details with authenticity

AWS automatic warning system was introduced on the railways to give the driver an advanced warning of sidnals ahead to stop SPADs, in now works in addition to TPWS.

I just received an offer as a Cloud Architect at AWS. This video was really helpful in preparing me for the loop interviews. Thank you so much!

[@cloudwithraj]

Congrats Ivan!! So glad this was helpful, but you are the one who did all the hard work!! Feel free to reach out to me after you join.

Hi @Ivan Bok can u please tell us, how u prepared that will be really helpful to me, even i am preparing for the cloud Architect, thank you so much in advance

[@starsoffyre]

@@tejaswinireddy2853 Hi, I basically took the list of leadership principles and tried to come up with examples for each one of them. For the technical side, it was mostly in Q&A format, and so I revised a bit on AWS services and architectures before the interview.

[@tejaswinireddy2853]

[@Yuriy-r7q]

Raj, thanks for giving so much value in one short video. Wish you all the best!

[@sanjitgrover]

Thank you Raj. Since a few months I have been studying through all of your Udemy courses. It made me more enthusiastic to learn from you as I was myself a Mainframe developer for many years and it has been really hard to get a good job and salary on newer technologies. So thank you once again for keeping me motivated.

[@cloudwithraj]

Very glad to hear Sanjit. Keep at it, keep learning, and keep building your body of work. And you will get your dream job at end.

[@anon-i3h]

Hi Sanjit , one Suggestion , AWS is heavily spending on the Mainframe modernization and migration on the cloud. People with your skills will be heavily in demand for such transformation and migration programs.

[@sanjitgrover]

@@anon-i3h Thanks for your suggestion. I will check it.

[@aymanberjaoui4937]

This is a great tutorial on what I have been looking for. Thanks a lot Raj for putting this out.

[@matthayden1979]

Recently i had screening round with Amazon for Solutions Architect role and the interviewer did not recommended me further. The questions where basic and i felt i provided enough explaination. I feel that answers should be articulated in such a way that it hits interviewer mind at the first strike. itself. I need feedback on how to articulate your answers as per interviewers expectations.

[@budhamar021]

It's a sin to have this much of knowledge. You are a CloudGuru sirji. Thank you for sharing your knowledge with us.

Hey Raj, Question: What if I use a network load balancer? Do I still need to pre warm it before the burst in traffic? Thanks

[@Freeman-qy9no]

Raj, as a solutions architect, how often do you have to do public speaking in conferences? I have no problem talking to clients over zoom, but I have terrible stage fright on a stage setting in front of many people. Is public speaking in front of large audiences a requirement when you are a solutions architect?

Hello other Rajdeep!! You have to open a support case from the AWS account (aws.amazon.com/support/createCase/?type=technical_support) where you want to pre-warm your ELB. You can work with your account TAM for this. It is not a self serving request per say.

Hey, great content. I am an IT engineer. After my graduation I found my interests in sales. I Have 2 years of experience. Now I'm thinking to start my career in technical field again. I know I'm not a coder. I cannot spent my whole day coding but little bit I can do it. I don't have a strong hold in any programming languages, I am considering my self as a beginner from scratch. Should I go for devops or SAP SD. And in both of the above feilds, does it require alot of coding in daily life ?? And if I start now how long it will take for me to get good at it and what all opportunities it will bring to me.
