Google Cloud Well-Architected


Framework

The Well-Architected Framework offers guidance for


architects, developers, and cloud practitioners to design and
manage secure, efficient, resilient, high-performing, and
cost-effective cloud topologies. Validated by Google experts,
it reflects Google Cloud's latest capabilities and industry best
practices. This framework is relevant for cloud-native
applications, workloads migrated from on-premises, hybrid
cloud deployments, and multi-cloud environments. It helps
ensure that your cloud infrastructure is optimized for
success.
Well-Architected Framework is organized into five pillars, as shown in the
following diagram. We also provide cross-pillar perspectives that focus on
recommendations for selected domains, industries, and technologies like
AI and machine learning (ML).

standards.

Compliance Alignment

Ensure your cloud environment aligns with relevant compliance


frameworks and certifications.

Maximize the security of data and workloads in the cloud, design for
privacy, and align with regulatory requirements and standards. This
pillar focuses on implementing robust security measures, protecting
sensitive data, and ensuring compliance with industry regulations.
Reliability
Resilient Design

Design your cloud workloads to withstand failures and


maintain high availability.

Automated Recovery

Implement automated recovery mechanisms to quickly


restore services in case of disruptions.

Continuous Monitoring

Continuously monitor your cloud environment to detect and


address potential issues proactively.

Design and operate resilient and highly available workloads in the


cloud. This pillar emphasizes the importance of building fault-tolerant
systems, implementing automated recovery mechanisms, and
continuously monitoring the cloud environment to ensure high
availability and business continuity.
Cost Optimization
Cost Visibility

Gain clear visibility into cloud costs


Resource Efficiency to identify areas for optimization.

Optimize resource utilization to


minimize waste and reduce cloud Continuous Monitoring
spending. Continuously monitor cloud
spending and identify
opportunities for cost savings.

Maximize the business value of your investment in Google Cloud. This pillar focuses on optimizing
resource utilization, gaining cost visibility, and continuously monitoring cloud spending to ensure cost-
effectiveness and maximize the return on investment.
Performance Optimization
Efficient Design

Resource Tuning

Performance Monitoring

Design and tune your cloud resources for optimal


performance. This pillar emphasizes the importance of
selecting the right resources, optimizing data processing,
and continuously monitoring performance to ensure a
responsive and efficient cloud environment.
Core Principles
Design for Change

Build processes that allow for frequent updates and fast feedback.

Document Your Architecture

Maintain clear and useful documentation to facilitate communication and


guide design decisions.

Simplify Your Design

Use fully managed services when possible to reduce complexity and risks.

Decouple Your Architecture

Separate applications into smaller components for increased flexibility


and independent upgrades.

The core principles of the Well-Architected Framework include designing for


change, documenting your architecture, simplifying your design, decoupling your
architecture, and using a stateless architecture. These principles guide the
design and operation of cloud topologies that are secure, efficient, resilient,
high-performing, and cost-effective.
