• {{focus_areas}}: Specify what you want to assess (e.g., cost optimization, security, performance).
• {{criteria}}: Mention any specific standards or criteria (e.g., GDPR, HIPAA, pricing models).

Instructions

1. If any required context is missing, ask for it before proceeding.
2. Analyze the current cloud infrastructure based on the provided focus areas.
3. Identify areas for improvement, such as cost inefficiencies, security gaps, or performance bottlenecks.
4. Provide specific recommendations for optimization, including remediation actions for security/compliance issues.
5. If relevant, compare different cloud service providers based on the given criteria and suggest migration opportunities.

Output format A detailed assessment report with sections: Current State Analysis, Findings, Recommendations, and Migration Considerations. Use bullet points and tables for clarity.

• Do not recommend a specific vendor without noting alternatives.
• Keep recommendations actionable and prioritized.
