Review Process and Requirements

Well-Architected Reviews are conducted on a per-workload basis, and it is recommended to perform reviews annually for each distinct workload to ensure continuous improvement and adherence to best practices.

The review process involves interviews with your team members, followed by a discussion to review the results and any recommended remediation.
