Which of the six pillars of Architected Framework is this
Includes the ability to run and monitor systems to delivery business value and to continually improve supporting processes and procedures

Operational Excellence
These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework
- Perform Infrastructure as a code
- Annotate documentation - automate the creation of annotated documentation after every build
- Frequent, small, reversible changes - in case of failures, you can reverse
- Refine operations procedures frequently - ensure team members are familiar with them
- Anticipate failure
- Learn from all operational failures

Security
These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework
- Implement a strong identify foundation - centralize privilege mgmt and reduce (or even eliminate) reliance on long-term credentials. Principle of leave privilege - IAM
- enable traceability - integrate logs and metrics with systems to automatically respond and take action
- apply security at all layers - like edge network, VPC, subnet, load balancer, every instance, operating system, and application
- automate security best practices
- protect data in transit and at rest - encryption, tokenization, and access control
- Keep people away from data - reduce or eliminate the need for direct access or manual processing of data
- Prepare for security events - run incident response simulations and use tools with automation to increase your speed for detection, investigation, and recovery

security
Which of the six pillars of Architected Framework is this
Ability of a system to recover from infrastructure or service disruptions, dynamically acquire computing resources to meet demand, and mitigate disruptions such as misconfigurations or transient network issues.

reliability
These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework
- Test recovery procedures - use automation to stimulate different failures or to recreate scenarios that led to failures before
- automatically recover from failure - anticipate and remediate failures before they occur
- scale horizontally to increase aggregate system availability - distribute requests across multiple, smaller resources to ensure that they don’t share a common point of failure
- stop guessing capacity - maintain the optimal level to satisfy demand without over or under provisioning - use auto scaling
manage change in automation - use automation to make changes to infrastructure
Cost Optimization

reliability
Which of the six pillars of Architected Framework is this
Includes the ability to use computing resources efficiently to meet system requirements, and to maintain that efficiency as demand changes and technologies evolve.

performance efficiency
These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework
- democratize advanced technologies - advance technologies become services and hence you can focus more on product development
- go global in minutes - easy deployment in multiple regions
- use serverless architectures - avoid burden of managing servers
- experiment more often - easy to carry out comparative testing
- mechanical sympathy - be aware of all AWS services

cost optimization
These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework
- adopt a consumption mode - pay only for what you use
- measure overall efficiency - use CloudWatch
- stop spending money on data center operations - AWS does the infrastructure part and enables customer to focus on organization projects
- analyze and attribute expenditure - accurate identification of system usage and costs, helps measure return on investment (ROI). Make sure to use tags.
- use managed and application level services to reduce cost of ownership - as managed services operate at cloud scale, they can offer a lower cost per transaction or service

Which of the six pillars of Architected Framework is this
focuses on minimizing the environmental impacts of running cloud workloads

sustainability
These design principles describes which of the six pillars of Architected Framework
- understand your impact - establish performance indicators, evaluate improvements
- establish sustainability goals - set long-term goals for each workload, model return on investment (ROI)
- anticipate and adopt new, more efficient hardware and software offerings - and design for flexibility to adopt new technologies over time
- user managed services - shared services reduce the amount of infrastructure; managed services help automate sustainability best practices as moving infrequent accessed data to cold storage and adjusting compute capacity
- reduce the downstream impact of your cloud workloads - reduce the amount of energy or resources required to use your services and reduce the need for your customers to upgrade their devices
