Performance efficiency
The performance efficiency pillar focuses on using computing resources efficiently to meet system requirements and maintaining that efficiency as demand changes and technologies evolve. For Microsoft workloads, this involves selecting appropriate cloud resources including traditional EC2 instances, managed container services, and serverless options like AWS Lambda for .NET applications. The pillar emphasizes choosing optimal compute resources and features for Windows servers, implementing appropriate storage solutions from EBS volumes to Amazon FSx services, and establishing comprehensive performance measurement and monitoring practices. By leveraging AWS's diverse service portfolio and Microsoft-specific optimizations, organizations can achieve optimal performance while maintaining cost efficiency and operational simplicity.
