AWS customers in regulated industries such as Healthcare & Life Sciences have the critical need to comply with regulatory standards such as HIPAA, HITRUST, SOC2, GDPR, etc. Relevance Lab’s Governance360 framework solution integrated with Dash ComplyOps platform assists customers in setting up and operating such compliant AWS environments.
As enterprises continue to rapidly adopt AWS cloud, the complexity and scale of operations on the AWS have increased exponentially. Enterprises now operate hundreds and even thousands of AWS accounts to meet their enterprise IT needs. With this in mind, AWS Management & Governance has emerged as a major focus area that enterprises need to address in a holistic manner to ensure efficient, automated, performant, available, secure, and compliant cloud operations.
Governance360 integrated with Dash ComplyOps
Governance360
Relevance Lab has recently launched its Governance360 professional services offering in the AWS Marketplace. This offering builds upon Relevance Lab’s theme of helping customers adopt AWS the right way.
Governance360 brings together the framework, tooling, and process for implementing a best-practices-based AWS Management & Governance at scale for multi-account AWS environments. It helps clients seamlessly manage their “Day after Cloud” operations on an ongoing basis. The tooling that would be leveraged for implementing Governance360 can include AWS’s native tools, services, RL’s tools, and third-party industry tools.
Typically a Governance360 type of professional service is engaged either during or after the phase of customers’ transition to AWS cloud (Infra & application migration or development on AWS Cloud).
