{"product_id":"cloud-architecture-patterns-bill-wilder-9781449319779","title":"Cloud Architecture Patterns","description":"\u003cp\u003eIf your team is investigating ways to design applications for the cloud, this concise book introduces 11 architecture patterns that can help you take advantage of cloud-platform services. You'll learn how each of these platform-agnostic patterns work, when they might be useful in the cloud, and what impact they'll have on your application architecture. You'll also see an example of each pattern applied to an application built with Windows Azure. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe patterns are organized into four major topics, such as scalability and handling failure, and primer chapters provide background on each topic. With the information in this book, you'll be able to make informed decisions for designing effective cloud-native applications that maximize the value of cloud services, while also paying attention to user experience and operational efficiency. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eLearn about architectural patterns for: \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cul\u003e \u003cli\u003e\n\u003cb\u003eScalability.\u003c\/b\u003e Discover the advantages of horizontal scaling.
