AWS Cloud Practitioner (CLF-02) Study Notes – Real Insights from a Business Analyst

These are my personal notes I used to pass the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner (CLF-02) exam first time—written in my own words, with clarity and context in mind. As a technical business analyst working on digital transformation projects that leverage AWS, I created these notes not just to pass the exam, but to truly understand the cloud ecosystem.

What’s Inside:

✅ Complete Coverage – All CLF-02 exam domains explained clearly and concisely.
✅ Beyond the Exam – Includes extra context (like Internet Communications) to help you understand the “why” behind the concepts—even if it’s not directly tested.
✅ Real-World Relevance – Insights drawn from hands-on experience in AWS-powered projects.
✅ Visual Aids – Diagrams to simplify info-heavy topics.
✅ Study-Ready Format – Easy to read, easy to revise, and perfect for pairing with practice tests.

Why These Notes Work:

🚀 Tried & Tested – I passed the CLF-02 comfortably using these notes alongside practice exams (which can be found online for free or through paid services).
🎯 Focused & Practical – No fluff—just what you need to know, plus helpful context to make it stick.
📚 Flexible Learning – Study on the go or print them out—your choice (I'm a print off guy).
💼 Written by a Practitioner – Not just theory, but insights from real AWS project work.

Whether you're just starting out or looking to solidify your AWS foundation, these notes are designed to help you succeed—with confidence and clarity. I hope they help you!
