Cloud-native application
Here are some of the most significant benefits of native cloud application development that contribute
to its increasing popularity among enterprises:
-
Cloud native applications can take advantage of massive computing power when it's needed to ensure
speedy deployment and scalability. This helps businesses to gain a competitive edge and always be
able to respond to user needs quickly.
-
Optimal automation - in cloud-native applications, infrastructure-provisioning and scalability are
fully automated. This leads not only to cost savings but also enables better time management and
boosts staff productivity.
-
Containerization - if a cloud-native application fails (which isn’t very likely), all it takes is
addressing the problem in one microservice. The company won’t have to pull the entire app apart to
check what went wrong. Containerization also makes it easier to roll back a part of the application.
If an error is detected, the system can automatically roll back the app to a stable version.
By automating processes with native cloud apps, the organisation can free resources to focus on what
matters most - reaching core business goals, delivering excellent customer service, and driving growth.
Cloud native technologies are becoming a go-to technology for organisations all over the world. Thanks
to the widespread adoption, challenges associated with networking, security, and storage are becoming
less significant.
Cloud-native microservices architectures
A key concept in cloud-native applications is
microservices >>.
Cloud-native applications are
containerized; every application works as a collection of small services that implement various
capabilities, run processes, and communicate. They can all be deployed, adjusted, and scaled
independently of the other application services.
Microservices can be automated so that processes like updates happen automatically, without causing any
disruptions to the application or its users. Thanks to microservices, issues like failing infrastructure
or outages are no longer a problem - most of the time, the system will stay functional.
