Building a landing zone is often extremely expensive, complicated and requires significant ongoing cost and expertise to configure, deploy, and maintain.
You need to configure a multi-account structure, set up identity and access management, establish network architecture and security, configure compliance guardrails, and more. Doing this from scratch is a massive effort that can take a team of engineers months of work to get right.
And, let’s not forget that a landing zone isn't a one-time project, it's a product you now own. Your team is responsible for every AWS update, security patch, and service integration, forever.
Gruntwork’s AWS Landing Zone is not a consulting service or a black-box package your team can’t maintain. We’ve taken the best practices behind AWS Landing Zone Accelerator (LZA), and combined them with IaC best practices and opinionated defaults.
The result is a multi-account AWS foundation delivered as OpenTofu/Terraform code you fully own, vended and updated through pull requests, working with the native AWS services you already use: AWS Organizations, AWS Control Tower, and IAM Identity Center. All for 80% less cost and effort than the average enterprise AWS Landing Zone deployment.
And you get 100% of the code to extend or customize as needed.
An AWS landing zone is a well‑architected, multi‑account environment that applies security and governance best practices across your org.
Gruntwork brings these foundations into your Git workflow with a Opentofu/Terraform‑first approach, battle-tested module library, and pipelines that teams already understand, making the landing zone maintainable, reviewable, and evolvable as code.
Managing a multi-cloud infrastructure? Gruntwork provides a common interface for provisioning and managing landing zones on AWS, Azure, and GCP. The command surface, the config schema, and the lifecycle operations (creating an account, updating baselines, rolling out a policy change) are identical across all three clouds.
What differs is what gets built underneath. Each cloud's landing zone is still constructed the idiomatic way for that provider: AWS Organizations and Control Tower on AWS, management groups and Azure Policy on Azure, folders and organization policies on GCP. That distinction is an implementation detail behind the interface, not something your team has to relearn cloud by cloud.
There is no UI, so it drops straight into whatever CI/CD pipeline already runs the rest of your infrastructure. No separate console workflow to bolt on.
