What is Azure Well-
Architected?
Azure has established guiding tenets for orchestrating scalable cloud systems. The result is the Azure Well-Architected Framework based on five pillars: Reliability, Security, Cost Optimization, Operational Excellence, and Performance Efficiency.
The Azure Well-Architected Framework Review lays down an actionable assessment structure Solution Architects can use to assess compliance with the five pillars.
Why is this important to your business? A Well-Architected infrastructure helps you build highly available, secure, cost-effective, scalable, and efficient core systems that drive business results and provide top-notch customer experiences.
How does nOps support Azure Well-Architected?
