Enterprise Cloud Foundation Accelerator

Enterprise foundational environment deployed at scale

Based on the AWS Well-Architected Framework and World Wide Technology (WWT)'s own best-practice model, WWT’s Enterprise Cloud Foundation Accelerator offering enables customers to immediately find value and begin the use of AWS by building out a new, secure, multi-account AWS environment. This offering has been established and vetted through assisting WWT's enterprise customers as they move to the cloud.

Enterprise Cloud Foundation Accelerator initially aligns with National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) and Center for Internet Security (CIS) controls for cloud. The deployment can then be expanded with more compliance controls, features, capabilities, and automations as customers' requirements grow.

With years of experience helping Fortune 500 companies on their journey, WWT has built a proven and repeatable methodology for helping customers successfully adopt cloud. Establishing a solid foundation is critical in avoiding future problems and costly rework.

  • How it works
  • Enterprise Cloud Foundation Accelerator allows customers to build an AWS environment that adheres to AWS and WWT best practices and is designed with flexibility in mind to allow for future customizations. In the initial stage of Enterprise Cloud Foundation Accelerator, WWT works with your team to conduct workshops to assess your current state and identify requirements, risks, and constraints to properly design your AWS environment.

    Once the expectations and design are agreed upon, WWT will work with your team to architect and deploy a minimum viable cloud (MVC) that aligns with your organization's framework and requirements.

    At the end of the engagement, you will have a secure, multi-account AWS environment based on the AWS Well-Architected Framework, AWS best practices, and WWT's recommended integrations and customizations. You will also receive materials that will assist with "Day 2" operations to effectively manage, maintain, and utilize the environment.
