Course Overview

Security and delivery speed are traded against each other in multi-region cloud architecture whether or not anyone says so. The documentation for this part of technology and systems delivery is accurate only until the next release. The content is relevant to those who own this area of technology and systems delivery and to those who are held accountable for its results. Participants take away a working set of documents supporting multi-region cloud architecture, ready to be adapted internally. Discussion is anchored to worked examples of this aspect of technology and systems delivery rather than to abstract argument. Comparative studies of this strand of technology and systems delivery across sectors find the same handful of failure points recurring. It establishes a shared vocabulary for multi-region cloud architecture so that teams can disagree productively about it. The version of this part of technology and systems delivery described in the manual and the version practised on the floor tend to diverge over time. The programme ends where implementation begins, with this area of technology and systems delivery broken into steps someone can start on Monday.

Course Modules

01

Multi-region cloud architecture: requirements, targets and service levels

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Setting availability and recovery targets for multi-region cloud architecture honestly

  • Confirm that those complying with multi-region cloud architecture understand why it exists.
  • Confirm every release of multi-region cloud architecture can be rolled back within a defined time.
  • Define incident severity levels for multi-region cloud architecture and the response each triggers.
  • Agree the indicators that will show whether multi-region cloud architecture is improving.

Session 2Dependencies and supply chain risk in multi-region cloud architecture

  • Measure current load on multi-region cloud architecture and project it forward twelve months.
  • Agree the smallest change to multi-region cloud architecture that would be visibly useful.
  • Rank the weaknesses in multi-region cloud architecture by consequence rather than by ease of fixing.

02

Multi-region cloud architecture: monitoring, alerting and observability

2 sessions · 8 points

Session 1Least privilege in multi-region cloud architecture without blocking the work

Session 2Closing out multi-region cloud architecture and capturing what was learned

  • Assess the exit route from any cloud or vendor dependency in multi-region cloud architecture.
  • Restore a backup of multi-region cloud architecture in a test environment and time it.

  • Establish what evidence demonstrates multi-region cloud architecture is under control.
03

Multi-region cloud architecture: backup, recovery and continuity

2 sessions · 8 points

04

Multi-region cloud architecture: security, identity and least privilege

2 sessions · 8 points

  • Configure alerting on multi-region cloud architecture that reflects what users experience.
  • Confirm the support model and escalation path for multi-region cloud architecture.
  • Collect evidence on the present handling of multi-region cloud architecture before proposing changes.
