# Certifications: data, AI and cloud certification exams

> 65 professional certification exams for data, AI and cloud practitioners from 10 vendors (Snowflake, AWS, Microsoft, NVIDIA, Databricks, Google Cloud, CNCF, Confluent, dbt, HashiCorp): exam price, length, questions, validity, renewal, prerequisites and the official exam guide, each read from the vendor's own page, by fru.dev.

Every exam has a source URL on the vendor's official site and the date its facts were last checked. Every Thursday (12:15 UTC) the site reads each exam's official page again; a price, length or question count that changed is recorded as a dated change (old value, new value, source) and never overwritten silently. Changes found by the automatic check are marked unverified until checked by hand. Retired exams stay listed with status "retired". Exams people pass, not company compliance. For SOC 2, ISO 27001 and FedRAMP, see Compliance (compliance.fru.dev). Last successful refresh: 2026-09-24 10:17:56 UTC.

Disclaimer: Exam facts from each vendor's own certification pages, with the date we last checked. Prices exclude tax and vary by country; the vendor's page is the final word. Logos via logo.dev; trademarks belong to their owners. Corrections: use Suggest a correction on any page.
