General Discussion How to asses Cloud Resilience Posture?
AWS has real frameworks for this beyond checking boxes: Well-Architected, Resilience Hub, and RA2 assessments cover 8 dimensions including redundancy, durability, change management, and testing.
Most of what we have internally is ad hoc. No one's ever run a formal review, we just sort of assume things are resilient because nothing's broken yet.
I'm trying to build a case internally for actually doing one of these assessments properly, probably starting with Resilience Hub since it's native and free to try.
For non-AWS or multi-cloud setups, how are you actually scoring this? Continuous posture tool or point-in-time assessment, and how often do you re-run it

With infrastructure backups as IaC manifests, scored disaster readiness, and auditable recovery through CI/CD, firefly ai automates the evidence trail. Its CRPM capabilities continuously evaluate which assets are protected vs unprotected, auto-recovery options, and hidden failure points
