Cloud Architecture Design: Key Principles to Follow

Hey there! Let’s take a look at this blog post about designing cloud-native applications. But before that, a word of caution – designing cloud-native apps ain’t the same as designing on-premises ones. So, whether you’re using Microsoft Azure, Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Computing, or any other cloud service, the design principles for architecting cloud […]

Transforming Cloud Infrastructure: The Power of Serverless Management and Deployment

Hey there, let’s talk about serverless deployment. It’s like having a magic genie who takes care of running your code, so you don’t have to worry about servers! Basically, serverless deployment uses the principle of deployment structure that hides any concept of servers. The infrastructure takes the service’s code and runs it. You are charged […]

Mastering Cloud Architecture Design: The Scalability Principle

Today, we’ll talk about scalability, which is basically a system’s ability to handle more work by adding more resources to it without sacrificing performance. There are two ways to scale an architecture, and they are: Vertical Scaling: Adding or removing resources from a single resource. It usually involves adding CPUs, memory or storage to a […]

Revolutionizing Banking with Serverless at Scale

So, I was curious about how banks design and secure their applications, and stumbled upon a talk from HSBC on how they built their serverless architecture at scale. Check out the architecture: Now, let’s talk about the key design decisions: Small CIDR and large CIDR blocks are in two different VPCs. If we used just […]

Strengthening Your AWS Security: Centralized Architecture for Multiple Accounts

If you’re looking to centralize security for multiple AWS accounts, then look no further than Megallan Health’s architecture. Sure, there are a few areas that could be improved, but it’s still a great starting point. This architecture was featured on the "This is My Architecture" series from AWS. Check out the following design: Now, let’s […]

Achieving Greater Visibility and Control: Centralized Logging on AWS Multi-Account

Alright, let’s give this text a quick polish and sprinkle some sass on it! If you’re like me and you’re obsessed with cloud-based architectures, then you’ve gotta check out the "This is My Architecture" series from AWS. Every week, they feature a new design that’ll make your head spin with excitement. Today, we’re gonna talk […]

The Bulkhead Pattern: Your Key to Resilient, Fault-Tolerant Systems

Alrighty, let me give this text a once-over and spruce it up a bit. Microservices can be quite the diva, consuming distributed resources and throwing tantrums when they don’t get their way. Unfortunately, when one of them acts up, it can impact other services as well. Kinda like that one friend who ruins the whole […]
