Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2023 Architect Associate Study Resources

by Samuel Mitchell, posted in architecture, Oracle Cloud Infrastructure

I have created this blog to share resources used to prepare for my Oracle Cloud Infrastructure Architect Associate Exam. The exam will be done using Online proctoring which will be my first time. Unfortunately, I am unable to take advantage of the test center option because it is not available using the Race to Certification program. As a result, I end up scheduling the exam at my work office because I have no proper enclosed sound proof room in my house to do a proctored exam.

Exam Number: 1Z0-1072-23

Multi-Cloud Architect Study Guide and Resources

Introduction

I have created this article to reflect the title which is to provide study resources to prepare for the various Cloud Architect certifications for Oracle, Google Cloud, Amazon Web Services and Microsoft Azure. Each of them brings their own dynamics to the architecture space and has difference focus and value. When you combine the information together, it will make you a well rounded Architect. The only missing piece is the business side because these resources only bring the technology perspective and focus. To fill this gap, I have included other resources from my references who I believe are enlightening the technical community on how to approach Architects with soft skills which is more important than the technical skills (the know how). Resources are from difference sources:

Technical Skills for Cloud Architects from different Cloud Service Providers:

Oracle Cloud Infrastructure 2023 Architect Associate
