Hi all,
I decided to take all the 2021 OCI exams to check what changed and guide people in the process of taking these certifications.
Well, not all the exams. I will do only the ones that I did in 2019/2020 and are the things that I work on a day-to-day basis 🙂
I'm taking the tests after midnight, having two boys, it's the only quiet time at home :)
Since the Oracle Cloud certifications are valid for 18 months (24 months for other vendors), I was excepting to see a lot of new things on the exam.
Oracle is adding a lot of new features to OCI and it makes sense to have the expiration date, but they need to add new things to the exams. Otherwise, it doesn't make any sense.
From 2019 to 2020 exams, the only one that completely change was the Autonomous Database Exam and looks like it will be the same from 2020 to 2021 exams (You can check this by analyzing the exam topics).
For 1z0-1085-21. you can find the material here:
And last but not least, stay away from Brain Dumps!
