Get your free Azure architecture assessment

Get an independent review of the architecture of your workload and discover what improvements and recommendations we’ll provide to you!

Based on Microsoft's Well-Architected Framework, we will review your workload based on five pillars:

  • Cost optimization
  • Operational Excellence
  • Performance Efficiency
  • Reliability
  • Security

During our 3-day assessment (we currently do for free!) we will walk through the five pillars with one of your colleagues to understand the goals of your organization.

Produce high-quality, stable, and efficient cloud architectures incorporating 5 pillars

The Azure Well-Architected Framework (WAF) is a set of guiding tenets that can be used to improve the quality of a workload or application. The framework consists of five pillars of architecture excellence:
Well-architectured framework pillars

 

Cost Optimization

Avoid unneeded costs and use the Azure resources in an optimal way.

Operational Excellence

Ensure that monitoring is available on Azure resources and your application. Foresee procedures to resolve issues that might arise and automate as much as possible to ensure reliability and predictability.

Performance Efficiency

Ensure that your application can scale up and down to meet the demand and identify potential bottlenecks. Use the available Azure features to configure the scaling or use high-level (PaaS, Serverless) services to offload the scaling to Azure.

Reliability

Ensure that your application can recover from failures and continue to function.

Security

Ensure that all parts of the system are set up in a secure way. Use identity management to limit user access to subscriptions and resource groups. Verify that your applications are free of any vulnerabilities. Use encryption in transit and at rest to protect sensitive data.
