Cloud Native Patterns

Cloud native computing is about building and running applications to take full advantage of the cloud computing model.

Key Patterns

  1. Sidecar Pattern: Deploying a helper container alongside your main application container to handle tasks like logging, proxying, or configuration.
  2. Ambassador Pattern: Using a proxy to handle network requests on behalf of a service.
  3. Circuit Breaker: Preventing a network failure from cascading to other services.

The Twelve-Factor App

Adhering to the Twelve-Factor App methodology ensures your application is portable, scalable, and resilient.

Conclusion

Embracing cloud native patterns allows teams to ship faster, scale more efficiently, and build more resilient systems.
