Enterprise Scale Description :

  • Medium-scale (Landing Zone basic scenario design and implementation): Number of accounts ≤ 10, <= 3 VPC, and no cross-region scenario.
  • Large-scale (Landing Zone basic scenario design and implementation): If the requirements are not met in medium-scale scenarios, <= 100 accounts, <=10 VPC subnets.
  • Ultra-large scale (Landing Zone basic scenario design and implementation): If the requirements are not met in large-scale scenarios, > 100 accounts, > 10 VPC subnets.
  • Medium-scale (Landing Zone governance optimization): Number of accounts ≤ 10.
  • Large-scale (Landing Zone governance optimization): If the requirements are not met in medium-scale scenarios, <= 100 accounts.
  • Ultra-large scale (Landing Zone governance optimization): If the requirements are not met in large-scale scenarios, 100 accounts <accounts number<= 200 accounts.

Prerequisites

  • Customers need to apply for the Landing Zone design and implementation services 15 days in advance so that Huawei Cloud can evaluate the business objectives and project delivery plan.
  • When deploying Landing Zone, if access to customers' service environment is needed, authorization from the customer must be obtained before the service content can be fulfilled. In addition, the cooperation of customers' personnel is required to survey the service status, collect requirements, design and review the solution, and accept the solution.

Service Scope

    Phase

    Activity

    Description

    Survey and evaluation on cloud IT governance

    Survey and evaluation on IT governance

    Huawei Cloud learns customers' IT governance status, collects their IT governance specifications (for example, on security, network, account management, billing, and bill splitting), analyzes the current IT governance architecture, and collects their requirements for cloud IT governance.

    Design and implementation for basic scenarios

    Resource organization

    Based on the business structure and IT management mode, Huawei Cloud designs resource grouping in a single account or for multiple accounts to separate responsibilities based on permissions.

    Identity and permissions

    • Huawei Cloud designs the cloud identity federation with identity providers (for example, Active Directory or Google) so that existing credentials can be used to access Huawei Cloud.
    • Huawei Cloud designs users and user groups, authorization management, and credential security, and configure permission sets for a single account or multiple accounts.
    • Huawei Cloud designs permission boundaries and organization-level guardrail policies for users, user groups, and application identities.

    Network planning

    • Huawei Cloud designs public network access, including access via the NAT gateway, elastic IP address (EIP), and proxy servers.
    • Huawei Cloud designs multi-region connections between cloud and on-premises data centers or on the same cloud, as well as the connection with third-party clouds.
    • Huawei Cloud designs VPC division for service deployment, inter-cloud VPC interconnection, and networks for public services, file systems, and Object Storage Service (OBS) buckets in the file management area.

    Compliance audit

    • Huawei Cloud checks the compliance of resource configurations for cloud asset operations, O&M, security, and reliability as the best practices.
    • Huawei Cloud audits operation logs and permanently stores logs about operations and resource changes.

    Security protection

    • Host security: Huawei Cloud designs protection solutions against vulnerabilities, threats, and attacks to hosts.
    • Data security: Huawei Cloud designs solutions for key management, database protection policies, and storage access control.

    High-level scenarios

    Data boundaries

    • Huawei Cloud designs security control policies for network and intranet boundaries. Routing tables, ACLs, and security groups are managed based on different permissions. This aims to minimize exposure to network risks.
    • Huawei Cloud configures SCPs and guardrail policies for VPC endpoints and resources to block all unexpected access paths based on principles of separation of duty (SOD). This ensures that data and resources can be accessed only by specified users on specified networks or environments. Analysis tools are provided to prove the validity of policy configurations. This way, Huawei Cloud can eliminate data leakage risks caused by privilege credential disclosure or incorrect configurations.

    Cloud financial management

    • Hierarchical financial management is designed based on the organizational structure of Landing Zone and master-member account associations.
    • Resources in each member account can be logically grouped by cost tag and costs can be split by cost tag.

    O&M management

    • The resource and event management of all member accounts can be viewed and operated in a unified manner.
    • The management account centrally manages the log monitoring of other accounts in an organization with multiple accounts.

    Landing Zone Governance Optimization

    Governance optimization

    The Landing Zone governance optimization service continuously monitors whether the multi-account environment on the cloud complies with the best practices of HUAWEI CLOUD Landing Zone, identifies governance risks, and provides rectification capabilities to ensure customers' cloud security and compliance.

    Technical testing

    Technical testing for IT governance solutions

    Technical tests are performed for the Landing Zone IT governance architecture in the customer's test or pre-production environment. The tests cover the multi-account system, single sign-on (SSO), user permissions, identity management, network connectivity, and operation audit.

    Solution implementation

    Implementation of IT governance solutions

    All IT governance solutions of Landing Zone are implemented in customers' production environment.
