Why AWS environments become difficult to manage

Account sprawl, identity drift, undocumented changes and noisy alerts compound until cost and risk become invisible.

Common AWS architecture gaps

Public exposure in security groups, single-AZ workloads, untested backups, missing tagging and unowned alarms.
