Data Architectures in Cloud Environments

Data architectures are an integral part for developing robust data pipelines. Cloud computing offers various features to build modern data architectures to power data engineering pipelines on a scalable, cost-effective, and secure level.

In this article we describe how cloud computing works in the field of data management. We start with brief explanations on cloud computing, general data architectures, and how both worlds fit together by introducing design principles, tools, and services for cloud data architectures.
