Responding to Azure Well-Architected Assessment Review
This guide outlines the steps involved in responding to Azure Well-Architected Assessment Review for your designated Cloud Workload.
In cloud adoption, a workload is a collection of IT assets (servers, VMs, applications, data, or appliances) that collectively support a defined process. Workloads can support more than one process. Workloads can also depend on other shared assets or larger platforms. However, a workload should have defined boundaries regarding the dependent assets and the processes that depend upon the workload. Often, workloads can be visualized by monitoring network traffic among IT assets.
