In this chapter, we covered the fundamental concepts of cloud-native systems. Our definition of cloud-native is focused on your context. You need an architecture that will grow with you and not weigh you down now. Cloud-native is more than architecting and optimizing to take advantage of the cloud. It is an entirely different way of thinking and reasoning about software architecture and development practices. Cloud-native breaks free of monolithic thinking to empower self-sufficient teams that continuously deliver innovation with confidence. This confidence is derived from the knowledge that cloud-native systems are powered by disposable infrastructure, composed of bounded isolated components, and scale globally, so that they remain responsive in the face of failures. Cloud-native teams embrace disposable architecture, leverage value-added cloud services, and welcome polyglot cloud to provide the strong foundation that enables them to take control of the full-stack, focus on the value proposition, and drive cultural change from the bottom up by earning trust through successful execution.

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.
