1.3 Explain the different cloud architecture design principles

Explain the design principles

  • Design for failure – “pre-mortem” exercises to anticipate failure, develop and test responses to it
  • Decouple components versus monolithic architecture – solution components operate and execute independently so the whole system doesn’t fail when one component does
  • Implement elasticity in the cloud versus on-premises – use cloud resources to adapt to fluctuating demand rather than paying up front for more resources than needed
  • Think parallel – scale horizontally when possible to make execution more efficient
