5 Pillars of Well-Architected Framework

Performance Efficiency

Using computing resources efficiently to meet requirements and maintain efficiency as demand and technology evolves.

Operational Excellence

Effectively and efficiently running systems to support business outcomes while continually making improvements.

Reliability

Recovering from failures through automation and self-healing and dynamically acquiring new resources to meet demand.

Cost Optimisation

Eliminating unneeded cost and suboptimal resources while measuring system efficiency and ROI.

Security

Security is a critical aspect of your cloud infrastructure. It gives you the ability to protect information, systems, and assets while delivering business value through risk assessments and mitigation strategies

What do you receive from the review?

Our certified AWS Solution Architects spend half a day with you to review your existing or proposed workloads and compare them with architectural best practices which have been defined over thousands of deployments on AWS. We then provide you with a report about your workload highlighting any risks, together with their severity and recommendations. From this we develop an report and statement of works for carrying out any recommended remediations. Once the report is in place, you will be eligible for $5,000 AWS credits to use on your account when you execute the remediation plan with Softcat.
