An Overview of the AWS Cloud Adoption Framework

The AWS Cloud Adoption Framework (AWS CAF) helps organizations understand how cloud adoption transforms the way they work, and it provides structure to identify and address gaps in skill and processes. Applying the AWS CAF in your organization results in an actionable plan with defined work streams that can guide your organization’s path to cloud adoption.

However, in order to fully realize the benefits your staff may need to acquire new skills and create or update core processes. Doing so can maximize the business value and minimize the business risks of cloud adoption.

This paper of the AWS VAF shows you how organizations can learn how to align their cloud strategies and goals to their business strategies and goals. It helps organizations identify the gaps in their current organizational capabilities and devise work streams to close those gaps.
