When you are developing and deploying applications in the cloud, it's easy to get too much focused on the end result due requirements of the speed and agility. However, it is important to keep in mind that creating technology solution's is a lot like constructing a physical building. If the foundation isn't solid, it may cause structural problems and undermine the integrity and function of that building. Starting from the initial design phase to the recurring review of your workload, it is important to ensure that your architecture is in accordance with the best practices. This ensures that your workload environment continues to function and deliver results, the way it is supposed to do in the short as well as long run.
