SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes references (resource) components.

What problem does it solve?

Enterprises need repeatable, secure, and cost-effective cloud architectures across AWS, Azure, and GCP while minimizing downtime, avoiding vendor lock-in, and meeting compliance and recovery objectives. This Skill removes ambiguity from cloud design decisions by providing structured discovery, service selection, migration planning, and operational guidance.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Multi-cloud & Migration Planning: Apply 6Rs migration patterns, wave planning, and landing zone design for AWS, Azure, and GCP.
  • Well-Architected Guidance & Security: Enforce Well-Architected/Cloud Adoption Framework pillars, zero-trust identity, encryption, and governance controls.
  • Cost & Resilience Engineering: Produce cost models, right-sizing recommendations, RTO/RPO disaster recovery plans, and high-availability topologies.
  • IaC & Deployment Strategy: Recommend Terraform, CloudFormation, ARM/Bicep patterns, CI/CD integration, and observability/DR testing practices.
  • Use Case: Modernize a legacy on-premises application by designing a secure landing zone, selecting managed services, estimating monthly costs, and defining migration waves and rollback plans.

Quick Start

Design a secure multi-region AWS and GCP landing zone with service selection, cost estimates, and a phased migration plan.

Frequently Asked Questions about cloud-architect

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I design a secure multi-cloud landing zone for AWS and GCP?

Multi-cloud landing zone design applies Well-Architected governance controls, zero-trust identity, and encryption to AWS and GCP environments. It provides structured service selection rationale and infrastructure-as-code recommendations to establish a secure, repeatable operational foundation.

What is the best way to plan an enterprise workload migration to the cloud?

Enterprise workload migration planning uses 6Rs migration patterns and wave planning to sequence transitions safely. It produces phased migration schedules with rollback plans, selecting managed services and estimating monthly costs to modernize legacy on-premises applications.

How do I define disaster recovery objectives and high-availability topologies for cloud architecture?

Defining disaster recovery objectives involves establishing RTO and RPO constraints to build high-availability topologies across multi-region deployments. It produces resilient cloud architectures with DR testing practices to minimize downtime and meet recovery requirements.

Can I use Terraform for infrastructure-as-code across multi-cloud deployments?

Terraform is recommended for infrastructure-as-code across multi-cloud deployments alongside CloudFormation, ARM, and Bicep. It integrates with CI/CD pipelines to provision AWS, Azure, and GCP resources while enforcing Well-Architected governance and cost optimization controls.

How does cost optimization and right-sizing work for cloud architecture design?

Cost optimization in cloud architecture produces cost models and right-sizing recommendations for managed services. It evaluates serverless and container platforms against Well-Architected pillars to estimate monthly costs and avoid vendor lock-in across multi-cloud environments.

When should I not use a single-cloud architecture for enterprise workloads?

Single-cloud architectures face limitations when enterprise workloads require avoiding vendor lock-in, meeting strict compliance across regions, or achieving multi-cloud resilience. Multi-cloud architecture design resolves these constraints by distributing services across AWS, Azure, and GCP.
