Agivant’s Approach for Leveraging AWS Well-Architected Framework for Successful AWS Cloud Platform Implementation and AWS Cloud Transformation
As per a McKinsey report, Cloud could deliver more than $1 trillion value across Fortune 500 companies by 2030, and early adopters will capture a disproportionate share.
While AWS has well-defined Cloud Migration Phases along with a structured approach, it’s critical to leverage AWS best practices along with AWS practical experiences for the digital transformation of clients’ businesses through innovative use of AWS solutions. AWS Cloud Adoption Framework needs to be focused on 6 Foundational Capabilities of Business, People, Governance, Platform, Security, and Operations.
AWS Cloud Migration Phases are well defined as Assess, Mobilize, and Migrate & Modernize.
The AWS Well-Architected Framework is applied during the Mobilize phase of cloud migration. This framework helps to understand the pros and cons of decision mode while building systems on AWS. Using the framework, one can adopt the architectural best practices for designing and operating reliable, secure, efficient, and cost-effective systems in the Cloud. It provides a way to consistently measure your architectures against best practices and identify areas for improvement.
At Agivant, we firmly believe that having well-architected systems dramatically increases the likelihood of business success. The key objectives of this framework are – Build and deploy faster, Lower or mitigate risks, make informed decisions, and Learn AWS best practices.

The Pillars of AWS Well-Architected Framework Are:

  • Operational excellence
  • Security
  • Reliability
  • Performance efficiency
  • Cost optimization
  • Sustainability
The AWS Well-Architected Framework provides architectural best practices across the six pillars for designing and operating reliable, secure, efficient, cost-effective, and sustainable systems in the Cloud. The framework provides multiple parameters that allow you to review the proposed architecture and a set of AWS best practices for each pillar.
Agivant leverages “AWS Well-Architected Labs” with the repository of documentation and code in the format of hands-on labs to learn, measure, and build using architectural best practices. This provides a consistent approach for customers to evaluate architectures and guides to help implement designs that will scale with business application requirements over time.
