Similarly, having a solid foundation is critical for software and the infrastructure it is deployed on. Just like you require the right materials, techniques, and plans to build a strong foundation for the house, cloud customers need right configurations, components and design techniques to ensure that their cloud environments are secure from the ground up.
Whether you are building a Falcon9 or constructing a new bridge, security, resilience, performance and quality are all well thought out and planned at the design stage. Well established regulatory codes ensure the choices available ensure good quality, strength, resilience, so costly mistakes are not made.
