Well Architected Review for Application - 1 day

Built on the AWS Well Architected Framework, our review is a trusted best practices model centered around six pillars:

Operational Excellence: Focuses on running and monitoring systems, and continually improving processes and procedures (automating changes, responding to events, and defining standards to manage daily operations.

Security: Focuses on protecting information and systems (data confidentiality and integrity, user permissions management, detecting security events).

Reliability: Focuses on workloads performing as intended and recovering from failure quickly (distributed system design, recovery planning, adapting to changing requirements).

Performance Efficiency: Focuses on structured and streamlined allocation of cloud resources (rightsizing and optimal resource types, performance monitoring).

Cost Optimisation: Focuses on avoiding unnecessary costs (understanding and controlling your cloud spend, selecting resources of the right type and quantity, scaling without overspending).

Sustainability: Focuses on minimizing the environmental impacts of running cloud workloads (shared responsibility model for sustainability, understanding impact, maximizing utilisation to minimize resource requirements)
