It’s all swings and roundabouts has been since the broad adoption of computers. I expect in a few years time when everyone’s forgotten the pain points that drove them to decentralize there’ll be a big move to centralize again. Someone will get a gold star for coming up with the idea and being able to demonstrate the “cost savings”. Of course it’ll completely ignore the general disruption to all of the product teams as they adapt to the new world order but what’s a company without a little busy work.
