the truth is developers at individual companies should only have to focus on the business logic that individuate those companies. all the other concerns - logging, autoscaling, security, messaging, routing, data storage - are very similar company to company. this leads me to believe that some sort of serverless workflow engine will be the next big thing. problem right now is that the developer story behind lambdas and step functions is horrible and leads to lock in. that will need to be solved. whoever solves it will be very rich indeed.
