What is the Cloud Native architecture pattern?

The Cloud Native architecture pattern is a software development approach that prioritizes developing applications specifically for cloud environments. It aims to leverage the scalability, flexibility, and automation that cloud infrastructure provides, and uses containerization as a primary means of deployment and management. This pattern promotes the use of microservices and is centered on the principles of modularity, resilience, automation, and observability. It also emphasizes continuous delivery and deployment, allowing for faster iteration and release of software.
