Requirements for Onboarding Mission Cloud Gateway
To deliver our advanced financial engineering services and enable Mission Cloud Gateway, we have the following prerequisites:
AWS Cost and Usage Reports: We must be able to analyze the customer's historical AWS spending patterns via AWS CUR data.
RI and SP Management: If the customers AWS spend is not well-suited for this kind of optimization (via RI and SP management), the customer cannot join Mission Cloud Gateway.
IAM Roles: In order to collect the data necessary for the optimization and guidance we provide customers, we will also need to create IAM Roles for both the tooling which operates on the environment and for the experts to explore and analyze the associated infrastructure. These roles are designed with the principle of least privilege and strictly limited to read-only access wherever possible.
Access Consultative Advice and Hands-On Keyboard Support Directly Through Mission Control
With Engineer Assist, an add-on available through our managed services, customers can submit requests directly through Mission Control to access consultative advice and hands-on keyboard support for their DevOps practices through the activities defined below.
