In this chapter, we learned that cloud-native systems are built on the principles of Reactive architecture. We use asynchronous, message-driven, inter-component communication to build resilient components that are responsive and elastic. Event streaming is the mechanism for inter-component communication. Components publish domain events to notify the system of their state changes. Other components consume these events to trigger their behavior and cache pertinent information in materialized views. These materialized views make components responsive by providing a dedicated cache that is continuously warmed. They act as bulkheads to make components resilient to failures in upstream components, because the latest known state is available in local storage. This effectively turns the cloud into the database by leveraging value-added cloud services, turning the database inside out, and spreading the processing across the elastic power of all the components in the system. This empowers...

Overview of this book
Cloud computing has proven to be the most revolutionary IT development since virtualization. Cloud native architectures give you the benefit of more flexibility over legacy systems.
This Learning Path teaches you everything you need to know for designing industry-grade cloud applications and efficiently migrating your business to the cloud. It begins by exploring the basic patterns that turn your database inside out to achieve massive scalability. You’ll learn how to develop cloud native architectures using microservices and serverless computing as your design principles. Then, you’ll explore ways to continuously deliver production code by implementing continuous observability in production. In the concluding chapters, you’ll learn about various public cloud architectures ranging from AWS and Azure to the Google Cloud Platform, and understand the future trends and expectations of cloud providers.
By the end of this Learning Path, you’ll have learned the techniques to adopt cloud native architectures that meet your business requirements.
This Learning Path includes content from the following Packt products:
• Cloud Native Development Patterns and Best Practices by John Gilbert
• Cloud Native Architectures by Erik Farr et al.
