Need suggestion - Confused between which AWS Certification to do.
Hello humans, I am planning to take at least one AWS Certification in the next 6 months. I checked regarding AWS Solutions Architect and Developer Associate. I would like to know which among them pays well in the long run (Checked online but couldn't find any relative information).
Bro you already have Amazon tag and 6 yoe. You don't really need any certificates to prove anything!
Salary depends on skillset and experience you’ve, certificate just proves that you kind of know basics.
Architect will always command higher salary becasue they are kind of responsible for best practices to deploy at scale.

I want to learn more about it also aiming for a better pay in long run.
In general, the value of any certification is inversely proportional to how many are awarded. If they are easy to get and lots of people have one (think liberal arts diploma), they're not worth much.
There are several other attributes that play an essential part in kick-starting your AWS career. I think it’s also fair to say that AWS certifications are almost prerequisites, rather than differentiators today. Unless you have several AWS certifications, this is usually the case. Everyone seems to have their Solutions Architect Associate certification so that’s not going to make you stand out when applying for an AWS Solution Architect job.
Do it only if your company is paying for it.
