Azure CAF vs Azure Well-Architected Framework (WAF) | Which One Do You Need First?

In this video I spoke about #Azure Cloud Adoption Framework (CAF) and Well Architected Framework (WAF) differences. 

I have answered few real world questions about CAF and WAF like - 

  1. Which one should be use in what context?
  2. Is CAF designed only for large enterprises?
  3. Is CAF provide high level guidance and it is not technical guidance?
  4. Is CAF mainly about documentation and should be done in linear way?
  5. Is CAF useful only for “green field” or new projects?
  6. CAF enterprise scale guidance is too much complex for me. What should I do?
  7. Is WAF intended only for certain workloads?
  8. Is WAF to be used only after deployment of application on azure?
  9. From CAF ESLZ blueprints/ templates/ arm scripts/ bicep scripts I want to use only firewall deployment, can I do that?
  10. From CAF ESLZ deployment I don’t want to create so many subscriptions for identity, networking and so on. Is it ok?
  11. Can I evaluate my application architecture for WAF pillars even before deployment of my azure resources and application? 

Please let me know if you have any feedback. Thanks.
