Documentation for worX
Our vision for worX is to take the principal of "codify cloud" and make that available to customers in a way that brings value at each stage of the Cloud adoption journey to address two of the most significant challenges facing enterprise AWS customers;
Organizational Complexity: Large enterprises are often complex organizations with multiple business units, geographically distributed teams, and complex governance structures.
Security and Compliance: Large enterprises often have more complex security and compliance requirements than startups, and maintaining security and compliance when adopting or scaling on cloud can be a significant challenge.
worX aims to help solve those challenges by providing technology that enables, accelerates and governs the cloud adoption journey.
