A quick snapshot of the different patterns that this article will cover, which are split between distributed and redundant deployments [2].

Summary of patterns

Distributed deployment patterns

These patterns are most useful when you need to leverage some characteristic, property or feature of a cloud provider.

Tiered hybrid pattern

The classic tiering usually consist of frontend and backend applications. Frontend dealing with end users, customers, consumers or combination of them. Frontends are stateless, in which performance and elasticity is really fundamental to cope with unpredictable workloads. Plus typically dealing with lots of changes, so benefiting of the agile mindset. Backends store data securely under regulatory requirements; and should change less frequently.
