Pillars of the Well-Architected Framework

This section describes the AWS Well-Architected Container Build Lens in the context of the six pillars of the Well-Architected Framework. Each pillar describes a set of definitions, key topics, and considerations that are relevant when building and designing containerized applications in the cloud. These include design principles, definitions, best practices, evaluation questions, considerations, key services, and useful links.

For brevity, we have only included questions that are specific to building container workloads. Questions that have not been included in this document should still be considered when designing your architecture. We recommend that you read the AWS Well-Architected Framework whitepaper.
