Cloud Database Architecture Tutorial

Welcome to the tutorial on cloud database architecture. This guide will provide an overview of the key concepts and considerations when designing a database architecture for the cloud.

Key Components

Infrastructure as a Service (IaaS): Provides virtualized computing resources over the internet.
Platform as a Service (PaaS): Offers a platform for developing, testing, and deploying applications.
Software as a Service (SaaS): Delivers software applications over the internet.

Architecture Patterns

Multi-Tenancy: Sharing the same database infrastructure among multiple users.
Single-Tenancy: Each user has their own dedicated database instance.
Hybrid: Combining on-premises and cloud databases.

Best Practices

Scalability: Ensure your database can handle increased load.
Security: Implement robust security measures to protect your data.
Disaster Recovery: Have a plan in place for data backup and recovery.
