What is the AWS Well-Architected Framework?
The AWS Well-Architected Framework offers a systematic methodology to ensure your cloud environment is secure, efficient, and scalable. As organizations grow, hidden misconfigurations and inefficiencies can accumulate, impacting performance and costs.
Through an AWS Well-Architected Review, Hi Cloud’s certified architects provide full visibility into these blind spots. You will receive an in-depth evaluation of your workload alongside actionable recommendations to strengthen your infrastructure with confidence.

How Does the AWS Well-Architected Review Work?
STEP 1Discover Your Architecture
We begin with a focused discovery session to understand your workloads, business objectives, and current AWS environment. This allows us to define the precise scope of the application or infrastructure to be evaluated.
STEP 2Evaluate Against AWS Best Practices
Hi Cloud’s certified architects leverage the AWS Well-Architected Tool to conduct a deep-dive review. We evaluate your environment across the Six Pillars to assess how your workload aligns with cloud best practices.
STEP 3Identify High-Risk Issues (HRIs)
We pinpoint potential risks that could impact performance, stability, and security. We identify architectural gaps, performance bottlenecks, and security vulnerabilities, all of which are documented and prioritized.
STEP 4Receive a Remediation Plan
Upon completion, you will receive a comprehensive report that clearly outlines which areas meet standards, which require improvement, and provides technical solutions.
STEP 5Continuous Optimization and Support
Cloud environments evolve rapidly. Hi Cloud provides ongoing support and periodic reviews to ensure your systems remain optimized and fully aligned with the latest AWS features and security standards.
