Yes, you can develop a blog with laravel, you can basically create any kind of web application with it.

If I choose one of these well-architecture frameworks
https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/well-architected/
https://aws.amazon.com/architecture/well-architected/
https://docs.cloud.google.com/architecture/fundamentals
Can I use them to create a web application like Blog, Social Network, CRM, and a web application of any type? And after the architecture implementation design from let's say the AWS Well Architecture framework, I start to code the entire web application using a something like Laravel/Nextjs/MySQL. Is this possible?

And if I use this also correct? -> https://aws.amazon.com/architecture/well-architected/ This will be the cloud architecture and virtual infrastructure?
Follow what @tray2 mentioned and follow laravel conventions. Namely MVC.
cloud architecture and virtual infrastructure
Companies like throwing fancy names on things like "cloud".
It boils down to:
You have code on a server that runs. Cloud is a fancy name for a server.
Yeah I know that. But I was wondering if I wanted to deploy on AWS. Could I use the aws well-architected framework to deploy a web application using Laravel?
The aws well-architected framework is just things you do and check concerning your app. Sort of a check list. But yes you can use AWS to deploy to (host) the app.
So if I decide to follow the aws well-architected best practices and I can use the EC2 server that the aws well-architected step told me to setup then I will be able to deploy my Laravel/Nextjs to the EC2 server through SSH or through Github Actions?
Is this your old account by any chance: @june23
I went ahead and ask AWS AI assistant this:
is AWS Well-Architected basically guidelines
The answer:
Quote
Yes, AWS Well-Architected is essentially a set of guidelines and best practices. It's a framework developed by AWS to help you build secure, high-performing, resilient, and efficient infrastructure for your applications. The framework is built around six pillars:
Operational Excellence - focuses on operational processes and continuous improvement
Security - prioritizes strong security measures and data protection
Reliability - ensures systems can recover from failures and meet demands
Performance Efficiency - optimizes resource usage for performance
Cost Optimization - manages costs effectively
Sustainability - minimizes environmental impact
AWS also provides the AWS Well-Architected Tool to help you review your workloads against these best practices and get recommendations for improvement.
Please let me know if you have any follow-up questions. I can also connect you with an AWS Sales Representative for further discussion.

Bottom line if using AWS they can answer your AWS related questions.
But I am sure I can deploy a web application once the AWS architecture is setup. Here it explains you can use Code Deploy and can use any backend framework like Laravel.
https://docs.aws.amazon.com/wellarchitected/latest/serverless-applications-lens/opex-deploying.html
This one is for Google well architected which I am sure you can deploy a Laravel backend framework.

There is this too for ECS

But what I have been trying to figure is Business Impact Analysis, Service Impact Analysis, and Risk Analysis apart of getting a KPI for a NFR? ->
1. Where BIA, SIA, and RA Fit in Your Framework These three risk-focused exercises act as a filter. They take your Business Inputs (1 Billion users) and ask: "What is the financial, operational, and technical impact if this system fails or slows down?"┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 2. Business Input / Goals │
│ (1B Users, 1 Post/Day, 10 Likes/Day) │
└────────────────────┬────────────────────┘
│

┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ BIA, SIA, & Risk Analysis │ <── Calculates financial loss, user churn,
│ (How bad is a failure or 2-sec delay?) │ and system vulnerabilities.
└────────────────────┬────────────────────┘

┌─────────────────────────────────────────┐
│ 3 & 4. Traffic Estimates & KPIs │ <── Sets the maximum boundaries the
│ (10k/100k QPS, Throughput, p95 Latency) │ system must handle to avoid risk.
└─────────────────────────────────────────┘
Business Impact Analysis (BIA): Quantifies the financial and operational loss if the system degrades. For example: "If search latency exceeds 1 second, user engagement drops by 20%, costing the company $500,000 per day in lost ad revenue.
"Service Impact Analysis (SIA): Determines which microservices will break downstream. For example: "If the 'Like' database slows down under a 100k QPS spike, it will cascade and crash the Newsfeed service.
"Risk Analysis (RA): Identifies the vulnerabilities and threats to your capacity. For example: "There is a high risk of localized traffic spikes during major global events (e.g., the World Cup), which could double our peak traffic overnight."
2. How to Get the Traffic Estimates (Step 3)You derive the Traffic Estimates by combining your Business Inputs with your Risk Analysis (RA) safety factors. You never build a system exactly for the average traffic; you build it to survive the peak traffic calculated during Risk Analysis. The Formula: Calculate the Average Baseline:$$\frac{\text{1 Billion Posts}}{\text{100k seconds}} = 10,000 \text{ posts/sec (Average Load)}$$Apply the Risk Analysis Peak Factor: Your Risk Analysis tells you that traffic is never perfectly flat. Peak hours (like 8:00 PM) or breaking news events usually cause a $3\times$ to $5\times$ spike above the average baseline. The Final Traffic Estimate:$$10,000 \text{ Average QPS} \times 3 (\text{Risk Spike Factor}) = \mathbf{30,000 \text{ Peak Ingress QPS}}$$By using the math this way, your Traffic Estimate accounts for real-world risks, ensuring you provision enough servers to handle the maximum possible stress.
3. How to Get the Technical KPIs (Step 4)Your Technical KPIs are derived directly from the thresholds discovered during the BIA and SIA. The business impact tells you exactly what technical thresholds you need to measure to ensure the platform remains healthy. To get the specific KPIs, you map the BIA/SIA risks to automated technical metrics: Example 1: Deriving the Read KPI from BIA The BIA Finding: A delay over $1,000\text{ms}$ causes rapid user churn and loss of ad revenue. The Resulting Technical KPI: Search_Read_Latency_p99. You monitor the 99th percentile specifically because the BIA proved that letting even 1% of your users experience 1-second delays damages the business bottom line. Example 2: Deriving the Write KPI from SIAT he SIA Finding: If the database takes longer than $200\text{ms}$ to process a "Like" write request, the API Gateway's connection pool will saturate, causing a complete system outage. The Resulting Technical KPI: Like_Write_Throughput_Capacity and Database_Connection_Queue_Length.The Complete Enterprise Framework View When we inject BIA, SIA, and RA into your exact layout, the complete architectural picture locks into place: Framework Layer Description Example from Our System Driven/Informed By

4. Technical KPI Technical metrics monitored to prevent business impact. Write_Throughput_Capacity and Read_Response_Latency_p99.SIA Connection Limits & BIA Churn Thresholds
5. NFR Target The hard architectural constraint. Search results must render in $< 500\text{ms}$ at a peak of 30k QPS. Human Perception Limits & Revenue Protection
I would suggest code an app first following MVC and laravel conventions which is usually all that is needed. Then do any evaluations on the app. You may be jumping ahead of yourself.
So if I decide to follow the aws well-architected best practices (...) I will be able to deploy my Laravel/Nextjs to the EC2 server through SSH or through Github Actions?
These questions make no sense. You can deploy apps through GitHub actions or over SSH. AWS guidelines, let alone KPIs, have nothing to do with it.
I don't think I've seen you (@june92 or @june23) ask a single programming-related question on this forum. But you keep bringing up terms and buzzwords in wrong contexts. Reading random articles without understanding the context isn't learning.
Have you ever finished a complete app with Laravel? You should start with that.
