Design principles for architecture performance

Architectural performance efficiency focuses on using application infrastructure and resources to meet increasing demand and technology evaluation. Technology vendors and open-source communities continuously work to improve the performance of applications. Often, large enterprises continue to work on legacy programming languages and technologies because of fear of changing and taking risks. As technology evolves, it often addresses critical performance issues, and the advancement of technology in your application helps improve application performance.

Many large public cloud providers, such as Amazon Web Services (AWS), Microsoft Azure, and Google Cloud Platform (GCP), offer technology as a service. This makes it easier to adopt complex technologies more efficiently with minimal effort—for example, you might use storage as a service to manage a massive amount of data or a NoSQL database as a managed service to provide high...
