AWS Well-Architected Tool is a service in the AWS cloud that provides a consistent and calibrated process for measuring your AWS architecture against AWS best practices that are updated from time-to-time. With help of this tool you can review and measure your architecture’s resiliency. And the best news is that It’s a free service offered by AWS. The AWS Well-Architected Tool helps you to define your workload, answer questions designed to review the workload against the best practices specified by the basic five pillars of the AWS ecosystem.
Before we start, you must have a brief idea about the five pillars of the AWS ecosystem and a well architected framework.
In 2017, AWS extended the framework’s general advice to more application specific domains with the concept of a “lens”. A lens adds additional questions for specific technology areas, which focus on what is different from the generic advice.
Today, there are three technology domain lenses.
