If I had to pick one of the two to write first, I would recommend the WID test. It’s more about how things works from a module-architecture level. The WPS test is more low level admin thing.

Its hard to tell. My background on WebSphere Integration Developer was using it for about two years before it was publicly available. So my opinion on the test is highly skewed based on my experience.

664 is a pretty basic generic SOA Test that you can pass without any particular product knowledge. Generally certification tests on a particular software products are difficult. I had friends with deep WPS (administrators) skill who only passed by a few percent because they rarely use the tooling.

Hi,
I found your blog articles really good,actually i am also a part of IBM India and had experience in web services and looking forward to enhance my skills into IBM Soa suite (WID,WPS).
Though i have no project experience on WID,WPS but i have installed these product on my pc and started learning them.Recently i have cleared 664 and found it relatively easy I just want your views on the difficulty levels of exam 991,093 for a person like me with no on project experience on WID and WPS.
