SCAF Foundations Toolkit
“Secure, cost-aware, multi-environment cloud architecture by design.”
The Secure Cloud Architecture Framework™ (SCAF) Foundations Toolkit is the core operating model that underpins secure, scalable, cost-effective cloud environments. It combines Zero Trust, FinOps, Well-Architected, and ISO27001 principles into a single, implementable control stack used by enterprises to design and operate multi-environment cloud systems with confidence.
Where most frameworks stop at high-level principles, SCAF Foundations gives you concrete governance baselines, environment segmentation patterns, readiness assessments, cost posture rules, and tool rationalization workflows that can be applied directly to Dev, Test, Pre-Prod, and Prod.
Scaling AI -- SCAF Extension
“Governance, architecture, and readiness for AI systems at scale.”
The Scaling AI - SCAF Extension Toolkit expands the Secure Cloud Architecture Framework (SCAF)™ into the specific world of modern AI workloads.
SCAF Foundations already establishes the baseline: governance, segmentation, platform alignment, and cost discipline for cloud environments. The Scaling AI Extension builds on that foundation, focusing on the controls needed for retrieval-augmented AI, multi-step reasoning, model routing, GPU execution, evaluation pipelines, and vendor trust-island management. Used together, they turn SCAF into a complete operating model for AI across Dev/Test, Pre-Production, and Production.
SCAF Foundations + Scaling AI
“A complete cloud + AI operating model grounded in industry-standard frameworks.”
This bundle combines the full Secure Cloud Architecture Framework (SCAF) with the full Scaling AI - SCAF Extension, giving organizations a complete, end-to-end operating model for modern cloud and AI systems.
SCAF Foundations establishes the architectural discipline needed to run secure, well-governed, multi-environment cloud workloads. The Scaling AI Extension builds directly on that foundation, applying the same rigor to retrieval-augmented systems, AI routing, embeddings, GPU execution, evaluation pipelines, and vendor trust-island management.
