This flowchart depicts the sequential steps for planning and implementing an AWS Landing Zone:
- Start: The beginning of the planning process.
- Define Organizational Requirements: Understanding the specific needs and objectives
of the organization.
- Plan Account Structure: Deciding how AWS accounts will be structured and organized.
- Establish Networking Foundation: Setting up the core network infrastructure.
- Configure Security and Identity: Establishing security baselines and identity
management.
- Implement Security Baselines: Applying specific security standards and best
practices.
- Review Default Security Settings: Evaluating AWS default security configurations.
- Set up Identity Federation: Integrating with external identity providers if needed.
- Design Logging and Monitoring Strategy: Planning for adequate logging and
monitoring for compliance and operational efficiency.
- Automate Resource Provisioning: Implementing automation for resource provisioning.
- Plan for Disaster Recovery and Backup: Ensuring data safety and business
continuity.
- Integration with Existing Services?: Deciding on integration with existing services
and systems.
- Identify Integration Points: Determining specific integration points if integration
is required.
- Proceed Without Integration: Moving forward without additional integrations if not
needed.
- Test and Validate Setup: Ensuring that the setup works as intended.
- Implement Continuous Compliance Checks: Setting up mechanisms for ongoing
compliance monitoring.
- Train Team on AWS Landing Zone Management: Educating the team about managing and
operating the AWS Landing Zone.
- End: Concluding the setup process.
This flowchart can be used as a guideline for organizations planning to implement an AWS Landing Zone,
ensuring they cover all necessary aspects for a successful and secure AWS environment.
