Well Architected ¶

The Well-Architected Framework is based on six pillars:

Operational excellence: It is the ability to run and monitor systems to deliver business value and to continually improve supporting processes and procedures.
Security: It is the ability to protect information, systems, and assets while delivering business value through risk assessments and mitigation strategies.
Reliability:
Performance efficiency: It is the ability to use computing resources efficiently to meet system requirements and to maintain that efficiency as demand changes and technologies evolve.
Cost optimization: It is the ability to run systems to deliver business value at the lowest price point.
Sustainability: Sustainability is the ability to continually improve sustainability impacts by reducing energy consumption and increasing efficiency across all components of a workload by maximizing the benefits from the provisioned resources and minimizing the total resources required.
