people want to go back to monoliths, but don't want to lose the upsides of microservices. once you get a taste of serverless, it's really hard to go back to overprovisioning. at the same time, distributed state and logic that crosses service boundaries is hard. I don't know what comes next, but what I _want_ to come next is powerful static analysis that works across languages and services, that can "compile down" to serveless services

Maybe something like ballistacompute.org? I can see a language agnostic distributed solution powered by async/await with type definitions constantly automatically compiled to the target language, all wrapped up in an ide with team-level versioning. Native support for event driven, streaming, and batch data with little ceremony. Throw in distributed ipfs-like storage with persistant references and eager caching and a strongly-typed graph database for good measure.
