A triangular canopy you tension between three fixed points to keep direct sun off the patio. The weave is tight and water-repellent, so a shower runs off the surface instead of soaking through. Four sizes are available, from a corner over the seating to a sail across the whole yard.

A patio umbrella always ends up angled wrong once the sun moves. A sail sits fixed between three anchors and covers far more ground, with no base in the middle of the floor. You set the pitch yourself, which decides where the shade lands.
One corner of the yard that stays usable at midday.
Tension the sail between two wall hooks and a post or tree, and set one corner lower than the rest. Water then runs toward that point instead of pooling in the middle. Take it down when a storm is forecast, because a tight sail catches a lot of wind.
Put it up before the next clear day.
