AWS Control Tower is a service that's built on top of other AWS services, to assist you in setting up a well-architected environment. This chapter provides a brief overview of these services, including configuration information about the underlying services and how they work in AWS Control Tower.

For more information about how to measure a well-architected environment, learn about the [AWS Well-Architected Tool](https://docs.aws.amazon.com//wellarchitected/latest/userguide/intro.html).
