AWS Well-Architected Framework (FCAI Guide)

Align your workloads to the six pillars with FCAI guardrails and insights

AWS Well-Architected Framework

The AWS Well-Architected Framework provides best practices across six pillars:

  • Operational Excellence
  • Security
  • Reliability
  • Performance Efficiency
  • Cost Optimization
  • Sustainability

FCAI maps findings and automations to these pillars so teams can improve posture without slowing delivery.

Explore each pillar for practical, FCAI-aligned guidance:

  • Operational Excellence → day-2 ops, runbooks, metrics, and game days
  • Security → least privilege, encryption, detection, and incident response
  • Reliability → recovery objectives, change management, and DR
  • Performance Efficiency → right tool/architecture, scaling, and testing
  • Cost Optimization → eliminate waste, leverage pricing models, and governance
  • Sustainability → measured efficiency, matching resources to need, and patterns that minimize impact
