Cloud Landing Zone Workshop
A half-day workshop designed to educate your organization on the concept, value and architecture of Cloud Landing Zones, including education on why investing in this foundational layer is critical to long-term cloud success.
What to Expect
A focused working session that helps organizations develop a governed, repeatable foundation for onboarding workloads across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud — standardizing identity, network, policy, logging and cost controls before teams build at scale.
Our workshop is built on a 9-pillar model:
- Organizational hierarchy
- IAM
- Network
- Security
- Logging
- FinOps
- Governance
- BC/DR
- Developer experience
- WHY IT MATTERS TO A TECHNICAL BUYER * Standardized onboarding — Provision accounts, projects, and subscriptions through a repeatable factory model. * Secure by default — Apply federated IAM, segmented networking, logging, and preventive guardrails before deployment.
- OPERATING MODEL + GOVERNANCE * Policy-backed operations — Use policy as code, compliance mapping, exception workflows, and drift detection. * Financial accountability — Enforce tagging, budgets, ownership, and allocation controls from day one.
- WHAT IT DELIVERS * Account / subscription / project factory * Federated IAM and least-privilege access * Segmented network patterns, connectivity, and controlled egress * Centralized logging, monitoring, and security telemetry
- LAST-MILE CUSTOMIZATION * Identity integration with the enterprise IdP * Network topology and guardrail design by workload class * Compliance mapping and evidence strategy * Automation, onboarding workflow, and operational rollout
Goals & Objectives
By the end of this workshop, you will be able to:
- Define what a Cloud Landing Zone is and articulate its value to both executives and engineers
- Quantify the business risk and cost of operating without a governed cloud foundation
- Map the core architectural pillars of a landing zone across any cloud provider
- Sketch preliminary landing zone architecture for your organization
- Assess your organization's current landing zone maturity using an interactive model
- Identify your top three priority areas for landing zone investment
- Outline a phased engagement path to design, build, and operationalize your landing zone
Benefits
* Cloud-agnostic strategy across AWS, Azure and Google Cloud with a consistent operating model
* Native accelerators plus enterprise integration for identity, network, security and FinOps
* Practical path from Discover & Assess through design, automation, workload onboarding and optimization
