This page is for Indian job seekers preparing for cloud engineer, DevOps, backend and solutions architect roles that list AWS as a skill, whether you are a fresher with a first certification or an experienced engineer moving into a senior role. It covers 60 questions in three levels: core services and concepts, then design and configuration choices for one to three years of experience, and finally scenario, security, cost and troubleshooting questions asked in senior rounds. Read each answer, explain it aloud in your own words, and try the CLI commands in a practice account with a billing alert set.
Questions you may be asked
What is the difference between an AWS Region and an Availability Zone?
Explain the AWS shared responsibility model.
What is Amazon EC2, and how do you read an instance type name like m7g.large?
What is Amazon S3, and what are its main storage classes?
