Sycomp's AWS Best Practice Analysis Service

1. Initial meeting with our "Best Practice Analysis" Team to review your goals and environment size;
2. Effort is scoped - using a framework and methodology, will range from 20-100 hours of a cloud engineer's time;
3. Client provisions temporary, read-only access for the assessment timeframe;
4. Final report provided as a deliverable in a final meeting.

Some of the areas of interest from our clients include:

Architecture & Best Practices

• Review existing IaaS deployment (VPC, networking, Direct Connect, etc)
• IAM Security best practices
• Develop plan to deploy cloud infrastructure for HA
• Review on-prem & AWS backup/recovery solutions
• Containerization readiness
• Recommend areas for automation (DevOps, Cloudformation, Terraform)

Cost Optimization

• Discuss tagging strategies
• Identify “orphaned” & underutilized assets
• Review resource utilization & possible optimization
• Check operating budgets, alerting & reporting

Client can choose to increase or decrease the scope based on the ultimate goal of the report, budget and organizational needs for validation. Follow on effort by the Sycomp cloud engineer to take action on any found errors, issues or environmental changes based on the report recommendation can then be accomodated.
