Build great solutions with the Microsoft Azure Well-Architected Framework

Learning path structure

This Microsoft Learn path has six self-paced modules, roughly six hours and eight minutes in total. It opens with an introduction to the framework and then gives one module to each of its five pillars.

The five pillars

• Reliability for systems that keep working and recover from faults.
• Security for protecting workloads and data.
• Cost optimization for spending that matches real need.
• Operational excellence for running and improving systems.
• Performance efficiency for scaling to demand.

Who it is for

Marked beginner level, the path suits developers and architects who work with Azure and want a shared vocabulary for reviewing a workload. Each module stands alone, so the path can be completed in parts.
