What is the Well Architected Framework?
The Amazon Web Services Well-Architected Framework includes strategies to help you compare your workload against Amazon Web Services’ best practices and get guidance so that you can focus on your business.
The Well-Architected Framework has been developed to help cloud architects build secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient infrastructure for their applications. Five pillars are defined within the framework — operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and cost optimisation. The framework provides a consistent approach for evaluating architectures and implement designs that will scale reliably and securely over time.
TechConnect IT Solutions are available to help you along the way as you build and manage your workloads.Engage us for an AWS Well-Architected Review.
