Commencis Well-Architected Review & Remediation

What is AWS Well-Architected Review & Remediation? The AWS Well-Architected Review is a structured assessment that evaluates your cloud architecture against AWS best practices across six key pillars: operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, cost optimization and sustainability. This review helps identify potential weaknesses and areas for improvement. Following the assessment, remediation strategies are provided to enhance your architecture, ensuring it is secure, efficient, and aligned with your business goals. This process ultimately helps you build resilient and high-performing applications on AWS.
