Designing applications for cloud deployment

Gojko Adzic wrote a GREAT arti­cles about a few very good points to take into con­sid­er­a­tion as you plan appli­ca­tion or infra­struc­ture deploy­ment on to the Cloud;

Dur­ing the last two years, I was involved in sev­eral projects deployed on the Ama­zon cloud. Being a rel­a­tively early adopter was a fan­tas­tic expe­ri­ence that pro­vided lots of oppor­tu­ni­ties to burn my fin­gers and learn from mis­takes. It also seri­ously chal­lenged my view of scal­able soft­ware archi­tec­tures. I spoke about key lessons learned at Cloud­Camp Lon­don last week – here is the sum­mary of that presentation.

Before I start, I’d like to point out that judg­ing from this post it might seem that I have a neg­a­tive view of cloud deploy­ments, but noth­ing could be fur­ther from the truth. I have many nice things to say about the cloud, but lots of other pre­sen­ters at Cloud­Camp do that all the time. I wanted to play the devil’s advo­cate a bit and expose some of the things that you won’t nec­es­sar­ily find in mar­ket­ing materials.
