Well-architected status
In the Workload Factory console, well-architected status is listed for all discovered EVS virtualization environments. Well-architected statuses are categorized as "Optimized" or "Not optimized". Selecting Inventory directs you to the Well-architected status tab within the environment where you can find all configurations for the environment.
Configuration categories
Workload Factory evaluates EVS configurations across multiple categories to ensure alignment with AWS and NetApp best practices. Each category focuses on specific aspects of your EVS environment:
- Availability
-
How accessible and operational the EVS configuration is expected to be.
- Security
-
How well the EVS configuration protects data and controls access (for example, EC2 stop and termination protection).
- Resiliency
-
The ability of the EVS configuration to recover from failures or disruptions.
