5 Best Practices in Building Cloud-Ready Applications

Designing and building a cloud-first application architecture for private or public clouds requires approaches, skills and best practices that are different from those used in traditional application development.

Here are 5 best practices we follow at CloudNow to ensure that we deliver applications that perform beyond client expectations on the cloud.

1. Building cloud applications as a collection of services

Traditional application developers have a tendency to create tightly-coupled applications that focus on the user interface rather than on the underlying functions or services that can be leveraged independently.

It is important to separate the application services physically, execute them on proper machine instances, assign service/API managers and use governance technology to provide service directories and track the many services that make up your application. Through this approach, it is possible to build up a service, with data as the foundation and then combine the services into composite services or complete composite applications.
