Cloud AWS War

Get on with the Cloud WAR with Locuz & AWS

Proposing to you a 1:1 hands-on Well-Architected exercise led by Locuz,
an AWS WAR Competency Partner

Considering the rapid adoption of the Cloud, and increased use of data to drive better business outcomes, the security and reliability of systems have gained increased importance.

AWS Well-Architected framework Review helps cloud architects build secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient infrastructure for a variety of applications and workloads. Built around six pillars—operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, cost optimization, and sustainability—AWS WAR provides a consistent approach for customers and partners to evaluate architectures and implement scalable designs.

It helps you understand the pros and cons of your decisions while building AWS systems. By using this Framework, you will learn architectural best practices for designing and operating reliable and cost-effective systems in the cloud.

Built around its 6 Pillars of Excellence

Operational Excellence Pillar

The operational excellence pillar focuses on running and monitoring systems, and continually improving processes and procedures. Key topics Include automating changes, responding to events, and defining standards to manage daily operations.

How does that benefit you?

  • Build and deploy faster: By reducing firefighting, and capacity management and by using automation, you can experiment, release, and realise value more often.
  • Lower or mitigate risks: Understand where you have risks in your architecture and address them before they impact your business and distract your team.
  • Make informed decisions: Ensure you have made active architectural decisions that highlight how they might impact your business outcomes.
  • Learn AWS Best Practices: Make sure your teams know the best practices we have learned through reviewing thousands of customers’ architectures on AWS.
