Sample Architectures

Reference architecture diagrams and descriptions for common patterns on AWS, Azure, and GCP. Use them to design systems, prepare for interviews, or compare how each cloud implements the same pattern.

What You'll Find

Sample architectures cover patterns such as:

• Serverless web APIs — API Gateway / Functions + database
• Container deployments — Managed containers and Kubernetes
• Event-driven flows — Queues, topics, and serverless handlers
• Hybrid and multi-region — DR, failover, and global load balancing
• Security and networking — VPCs, private endpoints, and zero-trust

By Cloud Provider

Provider	Description
AWS	Reference architectures using AWS services and best practices
Azure	Reference architectures for Azure-native and hybrid scenarios
GCP	Reference architectures using GCP services and patterns

How to Use

• Learning — Understand how components fit together
• Design — Start from a pattern and adapt to your requirements
• Comparison — See how the same pattern maps across AWS, Azure, and GCP
