Why Traditional Well-Architected Reviews Fall Short

Most reviews give you a checklist. We give you a roadmap to a better-architected cloud.

The Old Way

Generic questionnaire checklists that never look at actual resource configurations or architecture.

Our Standard

Depth vs. Surface Scan

Deep-dive analysis of your actual resource configs, IAM policies, and architectural patterns.

The Old Way

Hundreds of unranked recommendations that overwhelm your team and stall progress.

Our Standard

Priorities vs. Laundry Lists

Risk-prioritized, business-aligned action plan so you know exactly where to focus first.

The Old Way

A PDF that collects dust because nobody knows what to fix first or how to fix it.

Our Standard

Roadmap vs. Report Dump

Phased remediation roadmap with clear ownership, IaC snippets, and step-by-step guides.

From Findings to a Concrete Improvement Plan

Our report doesn't just list problems. It delivers a prioritized, actionable roadmap across all six Well-Architected pillars so your team knows exactly what to fix and how.

The Overview

Full 6-Pillar Visibility

Get a consolidated view of your architectural health across all six Well-Architected Framework pillars. We break down findings by severity so you instantly see where your biggest risks and opportunities lie.

Not All Well-Architected Reviews Are Equal

The AWS WA Tool gives you questions. Generic consultants give you reports. We give you a roadmap with the instructions to execute it.

Certified AWS Architects

We are hands-on engineers who build and operate production AWS environments daily. Our recommendations come from real-world experience, not theoretical checklists.

All 6 Pillars, No Shortcuts

We assess every pillar in depth: Security, Reliability, Performance, Cost Optimization, Operational Excellence, and Sustainability. No corners cut.

Actionable Remediation, Not Just Findings

Every finding includes step-by-step instructions, IaC snippets, and CLI commands your team can execute immediately. No guesswork required.

Frequently
asked questions

What is included in the Well-Architected Framework Review report?
Our WAFR report provides a comprehensive assessment across all six pillars:
  • Pillar-by-Pillar Findings: Detailed analysis of your workloads against Operational Excellence, Security, Reliability, Performance Efficiency, Cost Optimization, and Sustainability.
  • Risk Prioritization: Findings ranked by business impact and severity so you know exactly where to focus first.
  • Remediation Roadmap: A phased improvement plan with step-by-step instructions, IaC snippets, and AWS Console guidance for each finding.
This structured approach ensures you have a clear understanding of your architectural risks and a concrete plan to address them.
How is this different from the AWS Well-Architected Tool?

The AWS Well-Architected Tool is a self-service questionnaire that relies on your team's own answers. Our review goes deeper: we analyze your actual resource configurations, IAM policies, networking setup, and operational practices. We validate findings against real-world best practices, remove false positives, and deliver prioritized recommendations with implementation guidance your team can act on immediately.

Which Well-Architected Framework pillars do you review?

We review all six pillars of the AWS Well-Architected Framework: Operational Excellence, Security, Reliability, Performance Efficiency, Cost Optimization, and Sustainability. Each pillar is assessed individually with findings and recommendations specific to your workloads and business context.

How long does the review take?

A typical Well-Architected Framework Review takes 1-2 weeks depending on the size and complexity of your environment. This includes the initial discovery call, the deep-dive analysis across all six pillars, and the delivery of the comprehensive report with a findings walkthrough session.

What happens after the review?

We deliver the report and walk you through the findings in a dedicated session. From there, you choose your path: implement the improvements yourself using our detailed guides and IaC snippets, or engage us to handle the remediation. We also offer follow-up reviews to validate improvements and track progress against the roadmap.

Do you need access to our AWS accounts?

Yes, we require temporary read-only access to perform the review. We provide a CloudFormation template that creates a time-limited IAM role with only the permissions needed for the assessment. All activity is logged in your CloudTrail, and access is removed as soon as the review concludes.

Let's Architect Your AWS Environment the Right Way

Book a quick chat to discuss your architecture challenges. We'll explain our process and, when you're ready, request temporary read-only access to kick off your Well-Architected Review.
