Which AWS CAF Perspective Includes Strategy Management?

Why the Answer Is Correct

AWS CAF organizes capabilities into perspectives, and the Business perspective is the one that ties cloud investments to business value. Strategy management is explicitly a Business capability: it focuses on developing and implementing a cloud strategy that supports organizational goals. The question asks only which perspective addresses strategy management, not which perspective handles oversight or operations. Therefore A is the direct match, and community explanations from Nikmah and d00b229 point to the same alignment of cloud initiatives with business outcomes.

Why the Other Options Are Wrong

The People perspective concerns organizational change, culture, skills, and workforce transformation, so it does not own strategy management. The Governance perspective covers cloud policies, compliance, risk, and controls; its focus is guardrails and oversight rather than business strategy. The Operations perspective covers running cloud services efficiently and reliably, including monitoring and incident handling. None of these perspectives contains strategy management as a named capability, making B, C, and D incorrect.

Community Comment Notes

Nikmah described the Business perspective as helping “cloud investments accelerate your digital transformation ambitions and business outcomes”, which matches the strategy-management focus. d00b229 explained that Business aligns cloud initiatives with business goals while People handles organizational change, Governance handles policies and compliance, and Operations handles efficient operation of cloud resources. These comments reinforce the mapping instead of treating Governance as the default home for anything strategic. No commenter identified a different correct option.
