Taking a "cloud first" approach requires a different approach than you probably had to consider for your initial few workloads in the cloud. You'll be diving into the deep end of hybrid environments, and that means taking a broad view of your IT strategy, architecture, and organizational design. Through our experience in helping enterprises navigate this change, AWS has developed the Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) to assist with planning, creating, managing, and supporting the shift. In this session, we cover how the CAF offers practical guidance and comprehensive guidelines to enterprise organizations, particularly around roles, governance, and efficiency.
