Identify risk, improve resilience, strengthen security, and optimize cost across your AWS workloads.

Yaqeen helps organizations evaluate AWS workloads against proven best practices and turn findings into a practical roadmap for improvement. Our AWS Well-Architected Review is designed to help you uncover architectural risks, prioritize remediation, and improve operational maturity across critical cloud environments.

AWS-Focused Guidance for Better Cloud Outcomes

Yaqeen works with organizations to review AWS workloads, identify improvement opportunities, and support follow-on remediation across security, reliability, performance, cost, and operations.

What Is an AWS Well-Architected Review?

An AWS Well-Architected Review is a structured assessment that helps evaluate how a workload aligns with AWS best practices. It provides a clear view of architectural strengths, operational gaps, and priority areas for improvement so your team can make informed decisions with greater confidence.

This review is valuable for organizations that want to improve cloud resilience, reduce risk, strengthen governance, control cost, and prepare workloads for growth.

Our review evaluates workloads across the six AWS Well-Architected pillars

Operational Excellence
Improve visibility, operational processes, monitoring, and continuous improvement practices.
Security
Strengthen access controls, logging, protection strategies, and security posture across your AWS environment.
Reliability
Improve workload resilience, fault tolerance, backup readiness, and recovery planning.
Performance Efficiency
Ensure services, architecture patterns, and configurations support performance and scale.
Cost Optimization
Identify inefficiencies, reduce unnecessary spend, and align architecture decisions to business value.
Sustainability
Review opportunities to improve efficiency and support more sustainable cloud operations.

What’s Included

Each Well-Architected Review engagement may include
When to Consider a Well-Architected Review

Our Review Approach

1.

Discover

We begin by understanding the workload, its business purpose, architecture, dependencies, and current concerns.

2.

Assess

We evaluate the workload against AWS Well-Architected principles and review relevant architecture, operations, and governance practices.

3.

Identify Findings

We document strengths, gaps, risks, and architectural concerns across the six pillars.

4.

Prioritize Improvements

We help identify the most important issues to address first based on business impact, technical risk, and operational urgency.

5.

Deliver a Roadmap

We provide a practical next-step plan to guide remediation, optimization, and longer-term improvement.

6.

Support Remediation

Where needed, Yaqeen can help your team implement recommendations and improve the workload after the review.

Accelerate Reviews with Generative AI

Human-led, AI-accelerated reviews

For customers with Infrastructure as Code, Yaqeen can help accelerate parts of the review process using generative AI–assisted analysis. This can help speed up preparation, highlight architectural considerations earlier, and support faster identification of improvement opportunities.

Potential benefits include:

Faster initial analysis of infrastructure code

More efficient review preparation for AWS workloads

Early visibility into architectural patterns and gaps

AI-assisted recommendations across the six Well-Architected pillars

Best Fit for AI-Accelerated Review Support
Best Fit for AI-Accelerated Review Support helps organizations streamline evaluation workflows by leveraging AI-driven insights.
This optional capability may be especially useful for:

Teams using Infrastructure as Code

Organizations managing multiple AWS workloads

Cloud and DevOps teams that want faster review cycles

Technical leaders seeking more scalable architecture review processes
