Infrastructure As Code Advisor (Beta)
WAF-compliance
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.

| It is recommended to use below property for your resource Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts { "minimumTlsVersion": "TLS1_2" }Communication between a client application and an Azure Storage account is encrypted using Transport Layer Security (TLS). TLS is a standard cryptographic protocol that ensures privacy and data integrity between clients and services over the Internet | Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts | 3 |
| It is recommended to use below property for your resource Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts { "allowBlobPublicAccess": false }Disallow public access to all blobs or containers in the storage account. | Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts | 2 |
| It is recommended to use below property for your resource Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts { "accessTier": "Cool" }Infrequently used data should be stored in cold or offline archive storage, using less energy. | Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts | 2 |
| Location for the resource should not be hardcoded, it should be parameterized and should refer from Resource Group's location i.e. [resourceGroup().location] | Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts | 2 |
| Your current API Version i.e.2019-06-01 for the resource Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts is outdatedconsider updating to new recent version available i.e. 2023-01-01 or 2022-09-01 | Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts | 2 |
| To help other contributors understand the purpose of the resource, specify comments for each resource in the template | Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts | 1 |
| It is recommended to implement life cycle management wherever possible for your blobs, which will remove older files and limit hardware space and management on cloud | Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts | 1 |
| It is recommended to parameterized your tag and make it as object type | Microsoft.Storage/storageAccounts | 1 |
