Organization

There are many organizational considerations that need to be made when striving for operational excellence while delivering AWS End User Computing solutions, these are discussed in detail in the overall AWS Well Architected Framework.

The following questions should be considered when evaluating organizational impact on the deployment of AWS EUC services.

A new deployment of cloud based EUC services requires a detailed understanding of how existing services are used and the business objectives which are met by delivering those services. A project board containing authoritative and knowledgeable business representatives will benefit from historical knowledge and accelerate project delivery.

AWS EUC services integrate closely with many ancillary technology stacks. Verifying that the project team has representation from each of these areas can increase the chances of project success.

Deploying a new service or technology should be the result of identifying a compelling business requirement or problem to be solved that derives value for the business. When requirements are clearly defined, quantifying success criteria and measuring success is more straightforward.

Many of the scenarios discussed in this lens map to specific business challenges which are addressed by specific EUC technologies.

If you are migrating from an existing EUC system, you may have used specific, sometimes mandatory functionality that delivers a focused benefit for some user personas. Identifying these features and capabilities is essential to maintain feature parity or save costs if these features have not been delivering the expected benefits.
