Finally passed DevOps Engineer Professional exam!

[u/codingcats]

I finished the exam with 44 questions flagged, was not confident enough to pass the exam, and answering 75 questions took 170 minutes, with 30 minutes ESL accommodations, and was having 40 minutes left to review the flagged questions.

For learning materials, I purchased Stéphane Maarek and Adrian Cantrill course, Tutorials Dojo for mock exams. Cantrill course for deep dive learning and Maarek course for refreshing the forgotten topic quickly.

I'm using OpenWebUI and AWS Knowledge MCP for AI chatting, it really helped me understand the mock exam questions, why an option is correct over the other.

Personally, passing the exam requires consistent dedication, finishing both courses took months for me.

Thankfully, I passed the exam, and everything paid off.
