Cloud Solutions Architecture Patterns

Skills: Business Continuity Solutions, Data Storage Solutions, Identity, Governance and Monitoring Solutions

Cloud architecture patterns are reusable designs or solutions that address common challenges and requirements in cloud computing. These are standard approach to designing and building cloud-based systems, applications, and infrastructure. 

Common cloud architecture patterns:

✅ Microservices Architecture: Breaks down applications into small, independent services that communicate through APIs.

✅ Serverless Architecture: Uses cloud provider-managed services to run applications without provisioning or managing servers.

✅ Event-Driven Architecture: Triggers actions or processes in response to events or changes in the system.

✅ Containerization: Packages applications and dependencies into containers for easy deployment and scaling.

✅ Service-Oriented Architecture (SOA): Structures applications as a collection of services that communicate through standardized interfaces.

✅ Infrastructure as Code (IaC): Manages infrastructure configuration and provisioning through code and automation.

✅ Disaster Recovery: Ensures business continuity by replicating data and applications across multiple regions or zones.

✅ Scalability: Designs systems to scale horizontally (add more resources) or vertically (increase resource power).

✅ Security: Implements measures to protect data, applications, and infrastructure from unauthorized access or attacks.

✅ Hybrid Cloud: Integrates on-premises infrastructure with cloud services to create a unified environment.

✅ Cloud-Native Application: Designs applications specifically for cloud environments, using cloud-native services and features.

✅ Data Lake: Stores raw, unprocessed data in a centralized repository for analytics and insights.

✅ Cloud Bursting: Temporarily scales applications to cloud resources during peak demand or traffic.

✅ Content Delivery Network (CDN): Distributes content across multiple locations to reduce latency and improve performance.
