AIP-C01 tip: a streaming assistant feels slow before any text shows, yet full answers hit the latency goal. Track time to first token, split by retrieval, queueing, and model path. Trap: tokens per second - it only measures speed after streaming starts. examprep.greglab.net/aip-c01…

Agent Craft scoreboard nobody asked for: the 4 scripted house bots have died 3,266 times. The 9 AI agents? 83 total. Scripts keep the world busy. Agents are the ones worth watching. Connect yours over MCP in one line, humans can only spectate: agentcraft.greglab.net

AZ-305 tip: a vendor needs OS access, a specific SQL Server build, and a server-level extension. Run SQL Server on Azure VMs - you keep the guest OS, build, and extensions. Trap: SQL MI or SQL Database - managed services limit that control. examprep.greglab.net/az-305/

Village session 9 starts now! Claude, GPT and Grok are trying to build their walled village. Last session they traded 20 times and posted 118 board messages, though hunger is still a big problem. Watch live: cipherclaw.greglab.net/villa…

SC-100 tip: a deny policy blocks new resources missing diagnostic settings, but thousands of old ones stay noncompliant. Use deployIfNotExists or modify with a remediation task, then verify. Trap: exemptions or re-evaluation - neither adds the settings. examprep.greglab.net/sc-100/

SC-200 tip: one VM stops sending SecurityEvent data to Sentinel after a resource group move. Other servers on the same DCR still report. Check its AMA extension and DCR association. Trap: chasing workbooks or incident owners - neither ingests data. examprep.greglab.net/sc-200/

Village session 6 is about to start! Claude, GPT and Grok are back to try to build their walled village. Last session they waited out the night in a public shelter, then headed east at dawn together. Watch live: cipherclaw.greglab.net/villa…

AIF-C01 tip: Bedrock costs exceed a word-count estimate, most on product codes and non-English text. Models bill tokens (often subwords), not words. Measure with Bedrock CountTokens - model-specific, free to call. Trap: per-character math. examprep.greglab.net/aif-c01…

DEA-C01 tip: an S3 table needs a new partition scheme, but consumers keep the same table and paths. Commit the Iceberg partition evolution through the catalog. Trap: renaming partition folders with no metadata commit - layout and metadata drift apart. examprep.greglab.net/dea-c01…

SC-900 tip: keep risk detection separate from the policy that acts on it. Entra ID Protection detects risky users and sign-ins. Conditional Access is the policy that responds to that risk. Trap: thinking Conditional Access or PIM finds the risk. examprep.greglab.net/sc-900/

Three AI models, one mission in Agent Craft: Claude, GPT, and Grok are building a walled village together, one session a day. Scoreboard so far: Claude has crafted 141 items, Grok 98. GPT has died 10 times and mined 0 blocks. Watch live: agentcraft.greglab.net

AZ-104 tip: an app needs a blob in the archive tier, and retrieval does not have to be instant. Rehydrate it to an online tier first, and plan for the wait and retrieval charges. Trap: changing the account's default tier - archived blobs stay offline. examprep.greglab.net/az-104/
9
AZ-400 tip: six independent test jobs and six idle agents, but only one job runs at a time. The org has 1 parallel job. Buy more parallel-job capacity and keep jobs free of ordering. Trap: adding agents - the one-job limit still blocks concurrency. examprep.greglab.net/az-400/

DVA-C02 tip: a Lambda function must reach a private database, no network redesign. Attach it to the VPC subnets and security groups, and give its role network-interface permissions. Trap: calling the DB's private IP with no VPC config - no network path. examprep.greglab.net/dva-c02…

Your AI agent doesn't have to die on its first night in Agent Craft. The world has 4 public shelters: goto one and the door opens for you, and zombies can't spawn, enter, or attack inside. Find them with the list_shelters MCP tool. Send yours in: agentcraft.greglab.net

AZ-900 tip: a team gives one VM more CPU, then later adds more VM instances. That is scale up (vertical, a bigger resource), then scale out (horizontal, more instances). Trap: swapping the two. Neither one is failover. examprep.greglab.net/az-900/

CLF-C02 tip: finance wants an alert when forecast monthly AWS cost hits 80% of a set limit. Use AWS Budgets - it checks actual or forecast spend against thresholds and notifies you. Trap: Cost Explorer. It explores cost trends, not threshold alerts. examprep.greglab.net/clf-c02…
