Control Tower (Landing Zone)<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/controltower\/\"><strong>AWS Control Tower<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;encompasses a group of enterprise governance and compliance tools, hence its name.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">All these feature\u2019s pivot around the \u2018Landing Zone\u2019 \u2013 a managed service providing blueprint standards for creating, configuring, and governing your AWS Organization and the AWS accounts within it. The Landing Zone must be enabled once per AWS Organization \u2013 a process that usually takes around 60 minutes \u2013 before further steps can be taken.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Enabling the Landing Zone will apply numerous guardrails to your AWS Organization, consisting of detective controls (AWS Config rules) and preventative controls (Service Control Policies (SCPs)). AWS CloudTrail will also be deployed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-2-aws-account-factory\">2. AWS Account Factory<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Once Landing Zone is enabled,&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/docs.aws.amazon.com\/controltower\/latest\/userguide\/account-factory.html\"><strong>Account Factory<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;can be used to create new AWS accounts from a configurable baseline or standard. A common pattern is to employ Account Factory Terraform or Account Factory customisations; this ensures that customer-authored changes to Account Factory are kept with Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) control.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-3-aws-organizations\">3. AWS Organizations<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/organizations\/\"><strong>AWS Organizations<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;house your AWS accounts and any list of Organisational Units (OUs) that you define. You can use OU\u2019s to organise your accounts by business department or function, by customer, or by environment, for example.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-4-aws-identity-amp-access-management-iam\">4. AWS Identity &amp; Access Management\u00a0(IAM)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When operating multiple accounts within a growing AWS Organization, it is a strongly recommended best practice to provide access via a centralised Identity Provider (IdP), with federated access between accounts.&nbsp; AWS offers a native SSO capability, which is SAML and SCIM compatible, that your teams can use to securely access your AWS accounts based on their role.&nbsp;<a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/iam\/\"><strong>IAM<\/strong><\/a>&nbsp;roles can be matched to their job roles, or against a temporary requirement (i.e., least-privilege access policy).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">If you already have an Identity Provider (IdP), then you can simply integrate with that via SAML.&nbsp;SCIM can be configured to automatically synchronise your users and groups into AWS, where you can assign SSO roles ad hoc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-a-solution-architects-view-10-important-technical-attributes-of-a-landing-zone\">A Solution Architects View: 10 important technical attributes of a landing zone<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Our team of experienced Solution Architects at Devoteam, have listed the 10 most important technical attributes of a Well-Architected Landing Zone:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ol class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Employing Transit Gateway (TGW) networking between AWS accounts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Creating a single \u2018network\u2019 AWS account to route all outbound traffic via a single Network Address Translation Gateway (NATGW)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Enforcing encryption-at-rest and using a centralised AWS account to manage KMS keys<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Using AWS security services to govern and monitor all AWS accounts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Governing how VPC\u2019s (Virtual Private Cloud) can be configured, such as preventing the use of public subnets if they are allowed, for example<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Configuring Account Factory to provision new AWS accounts to an agreed standard<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Provisioning SSO access across your AWS accounts<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Using a centralised VPN to access private AWS resources<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inviting existing customer AWS accounts to safely join your AWS organisation<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Adding Service Control Policies (SCPs) to govern your whole AWS organisation or selected Organisational Units (OUs)<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Each of the above could warrant a blog post of its own.&nbsp; For now, we would recommend reading the following:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/transit-gateway\/\">Network Gateway \u2013 AWS Transit Gateway \u2013 Amazon Web Services<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.aws.amazon.com\/vpc\/latest\/userguide\/nat-gateway-scenarios.html\">NAT Gateway Use Cases \u2013 Amazon Virtual Private Cloud<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/aws.amazon.com\/kms\/\">Key Usage \u2014 AWS Key Management Service \u2014 Amazon Web Services<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.aws.amazon.com\/vpc\/latest\/userguide\/VPC_Scenario2.html\">VPC with Public and Private Subnets (NAT) \u2013 Amazon Virtual Private Cloud<\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/docs.aws.amazon.com\/singlesignon\/latest\/userguide\/what-is.html\">What is IAM Identity Center? \u2013 AWS IAM Identity Center (Successor to AWS Single Sign-On)<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<h4 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-conclusion\">Conclusion<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When you are considering your next AWS migration, it is vital that you take the time to plan and understand your target operating model and design a Landing Zone that suits your exact needs. You should leverage the Well-Architected Framework and the vast array of AWS guidance and experience in the AWS community.&nbsp;If you adopt this approach, then you will avoid the challenging task of correcting your AWS workloads post-migration, along with the risks associated with doing so.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-columns alignfull has-secondary-background-color has-background is-layout-flex wp-container-core-columns-is-layout-4b1fd674 wp-block-columns-is-layout-flex\" style=\"margin-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);margin-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-center is-layout-flow wp-container-core-column-is-layout-969dc29d wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\" style=\"padding-top:0;padding-right:0;padding-bottom:0;padding-left:0;flex-basis:40%\">\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\" id=\"h-maximise-your-cloud-benefits-with-aws\"><strong>Maximise Your Cloud Benefits with AWS<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image aligncenter size-full\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/devoteam.info\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/ebook-preview-2.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-103149\"\/><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-column is-vertically-aligned-stretch has-secondary-background-color has-background is-layout-flow wp-block-column-is-layout-flow\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group has-main-color has-secondary-background-color has-text-color has-background has-link-color wp-elements-1 is-layout-flow wp-container-core-group-is-layout-23162e80 wp-block-group-is-layout-flow\" style=\"margin-top:0;margin-bottom:0;padding-top:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-right:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large);padding-bottom:var(--wp--preset--spacing--medium);padding-left:var(--wp--preset--spacing--large)\">\n<div class=\"wp-block-group is-vertical is-content-justification-left is-layout-flex wp-container-core-group-is-layout-4a15ae55 wp-block-group-is-layout-flex\" style=\"min-height:0px\">\n<p class=\"has-text-align-left has-main-color has-text-color has-medium-small-font-size wp-container-content-42c95ffb wp-block-paragraph\">Ready to migrate to AWS but unsure where to start?
