How to use Azure services to prepare for AWS Certifications (Azure Cognitive Services - LUIS, Azure SQL and Skype)
I’m that kind of person that it is not impressed easily by a product or a software solution. However, I need to confess that this week, I was amazed when somebody shares with a solution that implemented to prepare for ‘AWS Certified Solutions Architect – Associate’.
mIRC and Trivia
Do you remember the old game Trivia? If you were born before 1990, I’m 99.99% sure that a part of your life was burned on IRC (mIRC), playing Trivia. If it was a great way to meet new people, but also to learn some history, geography and even match.
Smart technology
This guy had a brilliant idea to combine Microsoft Azure SQL and Cognitive Services to create a bot that can be used to play Trivia. Using LUIS, he developed a bot for Skype that it is using the Azure SQL to fetch question-related to AWS Certified Solutions Architect from the database.
With the power of LUIS (Language Understanding), that it is built on top of a leaning machine system, you can build a bot that can understand the natural language and communicate with the user. Technical it’s a 2 hours job, but begging able to be on the bus, on the train or at the queue at the grocery job and to prepare for the exam it’s fantastic.
Question repository
Do you ask yourself how he builds the question repository? Well, he bought a book with around 1000 questions, that was scanned page by page. After that, he used something similar with a basic RPA to extract the questions, responses and the solution. All this information where fetch into the Azure SQL, and now you can prepare for the exam using a Skype bot.
This is how we can use current technology to improve the way how we learn. Even with simple out of the box technologies, we make our life much more comfortable. Running such a solution inside Microsoft Azure is less than a tap of beer every month.
