AWS Architecture Planning Template

The AWS architecture diagram brainstorm template offers a dedicated space for your team to develop potential architecture solutions that address customer needs. David, who has extensive experience helping various partners and customers at AWS construct their own architecture diagrams, designed this template. To use AWS' architecture diagram brainstorm template, follow these steps:

Step 1: Outline the business and customer requirements. David suggests that, when developing an architecture diagram, you should have a reference point for the business or customer requirements. The template includes a space to specify these needs. Outline high-level use cases and technical requirements such as "Highly available web architecture that can serve 1000 TB of streaming data."

Step 2: Review the AWS Well-Architected Framework with your team. The AWS Well-Architected Framework provides a consistent approach for assessing and implementing architecture solutions that can scale over time while maintaining security, performance, and efficiency.

Step 3: Use pre-drawn architecture icons to start brainstorming. Begin mapping out your architecture in real-time as a team using the pre-drawn icons.

Step 4: Reflect on business requirements. Ensure that your solution meets your customer's needs by reviewing your original business requirements.

After your workshop, you should be able to convert the output of your brainstorming session into a final diagram artifact.
