Architectural patterns for the cloud

on YouTube ↗01h 03m

" summary

Catalogue of 21 patterns maps exact problems to fixes: health endpoint monitoring for liveness, queue-based load leveling to turn long running API calls into scalable workers, CQRS plus materialized views to serve precomputed energy billing from meter data, and cache‑aside to reduce DB hits. Also covered: valet keys (time‑limited tokens) for large blob streaming, static CDN hosting, sharding strategies, ambassador/sidecar proxies, anti‑corruption layers, strangler migration, bulkheads, retries with exponential backoff and jitter, circuit breakers with fallbacks, compensating transactions, and Poly for resiliency.
