# Cloud Architecture Skill · Cloud Computing and DevOps Canonical page: https://career.thegoodapps.co/skills/cloud-architecture Cloud architecture refers to the design of components — servers, storage, networking, databases, and middleware — needed to build applications and systems in a cloud environment. It encompasses decisions about scalability, redundancy, security, and how services communicate, often following patterns like microservices, serverless, or multi-tier design. Cloud architects and engineers use it to ensure systems are resilient, cost-efficient, and able to handle variable load. ## Cloud Architecture in the job market - Open roles: 36 - Employers hiring: 21 -
