The AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner validates foundational, high-level understanding of AWS Cloud, services, and terminology. This is a good starting point on the AWS Certification journey for individuals with no prior IT or cloud experience switching to a cloud career or for line-of-business employees looking for foundational cloud literacy.

There are two versions of this exam, CLF-C01 and CLF-C02, people who have given this exam before 19th Sep 2023, have taken CLF-C01.

Difference: The main difference is incorporating some syllabi and changing the weightage in the four domains. The guide for the updated version is given below.

It is always better to read the AWS whitepaper, as it contains up-to-date information about the services, which will be asked in the exam.
