Designing cloud-native applications for multi-cloud
Designing cloud-native applications for a multi-cloud environment is a complex task that requires careful planning and consideration of various factors. Here are detailed explanations of some of the key considerations when designing cloud-native applications for multi-cloud:
- Portability: Portability is a foundational principle when designing cloud-native applications. It entails creating applications that can seamlessly run on various cloud platforms without requiring significant modifications. To achieve this, developers should adopt cloud-agnostic technologies and standards. Technologies such as containers and container orchestration platforms such as Kubernetes, which is mentioned in detail in Chapter 2, Building the Backbone of Cloud-Native Applications, have gained popularity for their ability to abstract away cloud-specific intricacies. By avoiding vendor lock-in through the use of proprietary services, developers ensure...
