A company plans to migrate its legacy application to the AWS Cloud. One of the main challenges it faces is the occasional overload of the on-premises servers during unexpected spikes in demand, leading to interruptions in service. The company wants to ensure that the cloud-based solution can handle changes in load without human intervention. Which pillar of the AWS Well-Architected Framework should be emphasized to address this specific concern?
The Reliability pillar of the AWS Well-Architected Framework is the most appropriate to emphasize for handling changes in load automatically and avoiding service interruptions. This pillar encompasses the ability of a system to recover from infrastructure or service disruptions, dynamically acquire computing resources to meet demand, and mitigate disruptions such as misconfigurations or transient network issues. While Performance Efficiency is also concerned with resource allocation, it is more focused on the efficient use of resources rather than ensuring continuous operations and recovery from failures, which are central to Reliability. The Security pillar is about protecting the information and systems, which, though essential, does not directly address the stated concern of handling load changes. Operational Excellence mainly deals with running and monitoring systems but does not directly ensure the system's capability to handle unexpected demand spikes.
