What does the AWS Well-Architected Tool help users to do?

The AWS Well-Architected Tool is designed to help users review their workloads against AWS architectural best practices. This tool provides a framework that helps users evaluate the design of their cloud architectures and ensure that they align with best practices established by AWS across five pillars: operational excellence, security, reliability, performance efficiency, and cost optimization.

By utilizing this tool, users can identify areas for improvement and receive guidance on how to enhance their workloads for better efficiency and effectiveness. This proactive approach supports organizations in building secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient infrastructure for their applications.

The other choices focus on different aspects of cloud management that are not within the scope of what the Well-Architected Tool offers. For example, monitoring financial budgets, hardware performance, or auditing compliance pertains to other AWS services or tools that serve distinct purposes.
