Cloud Architecture Best Practices: Using the Right Tools

Building a cloud application is like building a house. If you don’t at least acknowledge the industry’s best practices, it may all come tumbling down. In the construction industry, principles to ensure a building is constructed effectively are documented in the International Building Code. In the realm of cloud infrastructure, Amazon has pioneered the AWS Well-Architected Framework. The Framework is something like a building code, established as a set of best practices for cloud architecture.

This white paper will help you:

• Outline the AWS Well-Architected Framework: Principles, “Five Pillars,” and best practices
• Inform how the Framework applies to networking — a critical part of cloud architecture
• Highlight how Kentik can help effectively implement these best practices
