# Cloud Design Patterns

Reach for a known pattern instead of inventing one under pressure

## What this does

You are designing or reviewing a system split across services and the same hard problems keep coming up: staying up, staying fast, passing messages, staying secure, shipping safely. This is a set of industry-standard cloud design patterns across those areas. Reach for it while designing, while reviewing someone else's design, or while implementing.

### Top 3 things it does for you

- Find a pattern that fits the problem I am designing for
- Review a distributed system design against known patterns
- Work out how to implement a pattern

A scan is named by the exact content it read, not by a version number. A different version is a different artifact, and nothing here applies to a version AIR has not scanned.

## Questions

### Is Cloud Design Patterns safe to install?

AIR scanned this exact version of Cloud Design Patterns and flagged nothing. AIR's verdict: safe. The verdict is named by the content that was read, at commit 90921cc46f4e, so it cannot drift onto a version nobody scanned. The full report is at https://airmarket.ai/security/cloud-design-patterns.
