Calm Cloud Compass

A cloud infrastructure readiness assessment tool.

This tool follows the ten-dimension cloud assessment framework from the Simple Infrastructure Thinking blog.

Before we begin

“Cloud assessment should not start with the question: Which cloud is best? It should start with: What are we trying to run, who will operate it, how will we secure it, what will it cost, and how reversible is the decision?

This tool does not try to prove that one public cloud is better than another. AWS, Azure, and Google Cloud are all capable platforms. The purpose is to help users assess cloud infrastructure decisions calmly, practically, and responsibly.
