Making AWS Solutions Architect review cards that stick

Studying for the exam is easier with AWS certified solutions architect flashcards built from the material you already use, such as your lecture slides, whitepaper summaries and practice notes. Good cards ask for one fact at a time, like what a service is for or when to choose it over a similar one.

Make separate cards for each service and the scenario where you would pick it
Write the answer in your own words so you test recall, not recognition
Keep cards short enough to answer in a few seconds
Retire cards you answer correctly several times in a row

Example AWS Solutions Architect flashcards

What is Amazon S3 used for?Object storage for storing and retrieving files of any amount of data over HTTP, designed for high durability.

How do a security group and a network ACL differ?A security group is stateful and applies to instances or network interfaces, while a network ACL is stateless and applies at the subnet level.

What is an Availability Zone?One or more physically separate data centers within an AWS Region, with independent power and networking, used to build high availability.

When would you choose Amazon RDS Multi-AZ?When you need high availability and automatic failover for a database, since it keeps a synchronous standby in another AZ; read replicas are for scaling reads instead.

What is an IAM role used for?Granting temporary credentials to trusted entities such as AWS services or federated users, so you avoid long-term access keys.

Generate the full set

Built from your material

Upload the PDF from your course, a slide deck, or photos of your notes, and get cards that match what you actually studied.

Spaced repetition

Cards you miss come back sooner and cards you know drop out of rotation, so review time goes to the gaps.

Export when you need it

On Plus, take your deck to Anki or CSV, or export PDF and DOCX for offline review.

How it works

Upload your material

Add a PDF, DOCX, PPTX, plain text notes, or a photo of a page.

Review the generated cards

Check the flashcards against your course notes and keep the ones that cover the exam domains you need.

Study on a schedule

Work through due cards each day so the spaced repetition schedule can do its job.

Focus your cards on trade-offs, since the exam often asks which design fits a scenario best. Pairs like security groups versus network ACLs, or Multi-AZ versus read replicas, are easy to confuse and worth a card each. Review them in short daily sessions rather than one long cram.

Frequently asked questions

How many flashcards should I make for the AWS Solutions Architect exam?

There is no fixed number, since it depends on how much material your course covers. Aim for cards that each test one service, limit, or trade-off, and add more where you miss answers.

What topics should AWS Solutions Architect flashcards cover?

Cover the core services for storage, compute, networking, databases, security and resilience, along with the design trade-offs between them. Scenario-based cards that ask which option fits best are especially useful.

Can I export my AWS flashcards to Anki?

Yes, Anki export is included with the Plus plan, which also adds PDF, DOCX and CSV export. The free plan lets you study the flashcards in the browser but does not include exports.
