The Cloud native services axis section described the components that could make up a cloud native architecture, and showed ever more mature approaches to creating applications using them. As with all of the design principles on the CNMM, the journey will begin with a baseline understanding of the principle and mature as the design team becomes more and more knowledgeable of how to implement at scale; however, cloud computing components are only one part of the design principles that are required to make up a mature cloud native architecture. These are used in conjunction with the other two principles, automation and application centricity, to create systems that can take advantage of the cloud in a secure and robust way.
