Announcing the AWS Well-Architected Tool Connector for Jira

Today, AWS Well-Architected introduces a new connector for Jira, which helps you create a closed-loop mechanism to efficiently manage and track your risks over time. You can now configure the Well-Architected Tool to generate Jira tickets and send updates directly to the Well-Architected Tool as tickets are resolved. You can now easily monitor progress from initial risk identification through remediation in one streamlined workflow. Increase your efficiency by reducing manual effort of marking Best Practices as complete in the Well-Architected Tool. Jira tickets will include notes from the Well-Architected Tool, providing seamless context and allowing you to address issues and improvements quickly. Use the AWS Well-Architected Tool Connector for Jira in the following AWS Regions: US East (N. Virginia, Ohio), US West (N. California, Oregon), Canada (Central), Europe (Frankfurt, Ireland, London, Paris, Stockholm), South America (São Paulo), Asia Pacific (Singapore, Sydney, Tokyo, Seoul, Mumbai, Hong Kong), Middle East (Bahrain).
