Core

Governance & Well-Architected

We put your cloud in order before it grows: identities, permissions, costs and policies, reviewed against the Well-Architected Framework and documented.

When does it make sense?

  • Nobody knows for sure who has access to what.
  • The cloud bill keeps rising and nobody can say why.
  • Every project was deployed its own way and nothing is documented.

Scope

What’s included

  1. Well-Architected review

    We assess your workloads against the framework’s pillars and give you a prioritized risk plan.

  2. Landing zone

    Account or subscription structure, networking and baseline policies, so you can grow without rebuilding.

  3. Security and identity

    Least-privilege access, MFA, logging and detection in Microsoft Entra ID or AWS IAM Identity Center.

  4. FinOps

    Tagging, budgets, alerts and savings recommendations we review with you.

  5. Policies and compliance

    Preventive controls with Azure Policy or AWS Organizations, and audit-ready evidence.

Method

How we work

Three steps, always with the same team and everything documented.

  1. 01

    Review

    Interviews and a read of your actual configuration, with read-only access. No production changes.

  2. 02

    Prioritized plan

    Risks ranked by impact, with the scope and effort of every fix.

  3. 03

    Remediation

    We apply the fixes you choose, as code, and measure again.

Reference architecture

A landing zone governed from the core.

Identity and policies are defined once and apply to every account or subscription.

FAQ

What people usually ask us

What is the Well-Architected Framework?

It is a public framework from AWS and Microsoft for assessing cloud architectures. AWS organizes it into six pillars and Azure into five. We use it because it is auditable: every finding points to a documented practice.

How long does a review take?

Between one and three weeks, depending on the number of workloads and accounts. We agree on it before we start.

Do you need admin access?

No. Read-only access is enough for the review. Change permissions are requested later, for each fix you approve.

Does it work if I use Azure and AWS at the same time?

Yes. We review each cloud against its own framework and give you a single prioritized plan.
