Hello All,

I am a certified Splunk Architect and want to become certified Architect 2 exam.

I have completed my cluster admin and troubleshooting splunk courses successfully.

as per the revised pattern for Architect 2 have an exam to pass.

I didn't get any details regarding this that, whether is this a multiple choice question exam (like admin certification) OR Lab exam ( like Architect certification)?

can anyone help me with details.

For me after sending the email to the team, they processed and send me certification with out any exam.

the answer is, No exam for Architect 2.

After architect exam, you need to complete
1. Troubleshooting Splunk and
2. Cluster admin courses followed by

  1. sending e-mail to Splunk team that you completed trainings.

I had the same, the question is - when did this happen? Last week? Last year? A lot has changed in the last month, hence the question from @srisahitya_v

From what I take from splunk.com, it's still a "do the courses, send us a mail and you're done" procedure.

See this:

After completing the courses listed below, candidates must email certification@splunk.com for this certification to be processed.

At least when I did it last year, it was neither.
You just need Arch I certification, the required courses for Arch II, send them a mail, get the cert. No test involved.
