Every Public Cloud implementation requires a solid foundation (Landing Zone) to ensure the governance of the platform. With the Landing Zone-as-a-Service (LZaaS), we avoid high upfront costs for providing such a foundation. After onboarding, we offer the use of the Landing Zone, including maintenance, based on a monthly subscription. You always decide whether to let the workloads land independently on the platform or to have us do it for you.
The CloudNation Landing Zone is a set of smart scripts/templates that allow you to automatically create a secure and scalable platform with built-in authentication, centralised logging, and centralised security.

How does your AWS cloud architecture compare to industry best practices? Are you sure your monthly AWS expenses are fully optimised? Are you confident that your AWS platform is well protected against security risks?
Your AWS environment is constantly changing. Engineers are continuously starting new instances, altering security groups, and experimenting with new AWS services. So how do you ensure that your cloud doesn't become spaghetti?
AWS recommends a Well-Architected Review every 12-18 months. This is a set of best practice guidelines for running applications and CloudNation provides this for you. We assess your workloads in AWS by comparing them to best practices in the following pillars:- Operational Excellence- Security- Reliability- Performance Efficiency- Cost Optimization
The result? You receive a whole range of valuable and actionable insights into your AWS infrastructure for free*.
What does a Well-Architected Review by CloudNation look like?1.     Kick-off meeting to get to know you and your workloads in AWS.2.    Your team answers fundamental questions from the AWS Well-Architected Framework.3.    2-4 hour workshop to go over the questions, identify missing puzzle pieces, and test your answers.4.    Delivery of the Well-Architected Review report.5.    Delivery of the improvement plan with a list of prioritised recommendations to resolve high-risk issues.6.    Addressing a selection of the identified high-risk issues (at least 45% of high-risk issues are resolved).7.    Follow-up meeting to discuss improvements.8.    Submission of the Well-Architected Review to AWS and receive $5,000 in Well-Architected Service Credits.

Planning to migrate to the cloud? Do this first.
The cloud can be an efficient and cost-effective way to make your data, applications, and workloads more secure and accessible. At least, if done correctly.
So, how do you successfully and securely migrate your IT to the cloud? The starting point is a Cloud Readiness Assessment. This will help you identify exactly what concrete steps are needed to do this successfully and securely.
The Readiness Assessment consists of a number of interviews and (read) access to existing environments to get a clear picture of the current infrastructures and applications. Based on the gathered information, we will prepare a presentation in which we report and explain the findings.
Deliverables are: •    Plan of Approach with recommendations •    High-Level Design •    Backlog •    Statement of Work for follow-up steps.
The result? Do it right the first time. You prevent unwanted surprises during the migration to the cloud and align everyone with realistic expectations in terms of budget and planning. In other words: everyone happy. Don't make moving to the cloud harder than it needs to be.
