Cloud Native refers to designing and building applications specifically to take advantage of cloud environments. Instead of simply moving traditional software to cloud servers, cloud-native applications are typically developed using approaches such as microservices, containers, APIs, and automated orchestration to make individual components easier to deploy, scale, and update.
This approach is well suited to applications that need frequent releases, rapid scaling, or resilience across distributed infrastructure. Cloud-native systems often use container platforms, service meshes, serverless services, and automated CI/CD pipelines to manage workloads dynamically across modern cloud environments.
