What do you mean by Cloud Applications?

Why should you care?

Scalability is not a feature

Design for failure and it will not happen

Designing for failure is hard*

*Why not externalising as much components as possible then?

Typical Application Components• Mailing Service for sending individual or mass e-mail

• Notification service for sending push notifications (mobile backends)

• Message Queuing Service for dispatching tasks to asynchronous workers

• Search and data indexing

• Data Store (Database), for storing relational or non-relational data

• File Store, for storing images and other static assets

“Building scalable applications by externalising core services to Amazon AWS and focus on your business logic without re-

inventing the wheel”
