I think complete CI/CD+hosting solutions are somewhat likely; open versions of things like AWS lambda or GCP cloud functions. Roll the entire tech stack into a automated service.

What most backend devs want is to write code and stick it behind a URI endpoint and make sure it keeps running with networking, auth, security, monitoring, scaling, and reliability taken care of by someone else.
