Free AWS CLF-C02 practice exams are available here, covering all four domains of the AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner certification. Whether you are new to cloud computing or brushing up before exam day, these questions are designed to match the style and difficulty of the real exam.
What CLF-C02 covers
The AWS Certified Cloud Practitioner exam is structured around four domains:
- Cloud Technology and Services (34%) covers the core AWS services you need to know: compute (EC2, Lambda, Elastic Beanstalk), storage (S3, EBS, EFS, Glacier), databases (RDS, DynamoDB, Aurora, Redshift), networking (VPC, Route 53, CloudFront), and more.
- Security and Compliance (30%) tests your understanding of the Shared Responsibility Model, IAM, encryption, and AWS security services like GuardDuty, Inspector, Macie, WAF, and Shield.
- Cloud Concepts (24%) focuses on the value of the cloud, the AWS Well-Architected Framework, the global infrastructure (Regions, Availability Zones, edge locations), and key cloud principles like elasticity, fault tolerance, and high availability.
- Billing, Pricing, and Support (12%) covers pricing models (On-Demand, Reserved, Spot, Savings Plans), cost management tools (Cost Explorer, Budgets, Pricing Calculator), and AWS Support plans.
What's in these practice exams

How to use these questions effectively
Do not just click through answers until you hit green. For each question you get wrong, read the full explanation and make sure you understand the reasoning before moving on. The CLF-C02 uses scenario-based questions that require you to apply knowledge rather than recall definitions, so understanding the why behind each answer matters more than memorizing facts.
After finishing a set, note which domains gave you the most trouble. The exam weights Cloud Technology and Services highest at 34%, so if you are struggling with service identification questions, spend extra time reviewing the AWS service portfolio.
