The WAF-compliance advisor validates templates based on the Well Architected Framework practices. Every day a GitHub Action updates the templates compliance data and lists the recomendations.
Sustainbility Advisor
The sustainability advisor is based on the Sogeti Cloud Reference Architecture with sustainble practices. These sustainble practices cover application code, cloud infrastructures and data. The global Sogeti community is continously evolving the sustainble practices and every day new and tuned are added. For cloud infrastructures the sustainble practices are automatically validated and reported below.
note: when 100% it can be that there is no sustainble practices yet for this Cloud infrastructure.
