Step 4: Make improvements and measure progress
As part of this improvement plan, one of the high risk issues was addressed by adding Amazon CloudWatch and AWS Auto Scaling support to the workload.
From the Improvement items section:
-
Choose the pertinent question and update the selected best practices to reflect the changes. Notes are added to record the improvements.
-
Then choose Save and exit to update the state of the workload.
-
After making changes, you can return to the Improvement plan and see the effect those changes had on the workload. In this example, those actions have improved the risk profile — reducing the number of high risk issues from three to only one.

You can save a milestone at this point, and then go to Milestones to see how the workload has improved.
