What is the AWS SOA-C03 exam like?
CertOcean's AWS CloudOps Engineer training is for IT administrators and system engineers who deploy, run and manage workloads on AWS. It prepares you for the AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer – Associate exam (SOA-C03). AWS renamed the SysOps Administrator – Associate certification to CloudOps Engineer – Associate to reflect how cloud operations work today, and the course follows the current SOA-C03 exam guide (version 1.1, June 2026).
The AWS Certified CloudOps Engineer – Associate certification shows that you can operate workloads on AWS: monitor and troubleshoot them, keep them reliable and recoverable, automate deployments, apply security and compliance controls, and manage networking and content delivery. Compared with the old SysOps exam, SOA-C03 adds topics such as the CloudWatch agent for containers (ECS and EKS), CloudFormation and CDK stack management, Region and service restrictions, and CloudWatch network monitoring.
After this course, you will be able to:
AWS recommends at least one year of hands-on experience deploying, managing, networking and securing workloads on AWS, and at least one year in an operations role.
There are no formal prerequisites. You will get the most from the course if you have:
