Containers and Microservices architectures will dig deeper
For those who can’t embrace FaaS – yes, this will be a big topic 2018
Artificial Intelligence and Deep Learning
Its getting easier to use AI for small companies. So yes .. this will be a thing … but from my perspective – this will take some more years to be usable as a service AND then it will a big thing.
Cybersecurity and data protection regulations
Security SHOULD always be a topic. Who on earth is putting his internal financial data or user data on a public S3 site???
