FIVE PILLARS

  • Security
  • Reliability
  • Performance Efficiency
  • Cost Optimization
  • Operational Excellence
slide-18
SLIDE 18

SECURITY

  • Apply security at all layers
  • Implement principle of least privilege
  • Focus on securing your system
  • Automate security best practices
slide-19
SLIDE 19

RELIABILITY

  • Experiment more often
  • Mechanical sympathy
slide-21
SLIDE 21

COST OPTIMIZATION

  • Benefit from economies of scale
  • Analyze expenditure
  • Use managed services to reduce cost of
  • wnership
slide-22
SLIDE 22

OPERATIONAL EXCELLENCE
