WHAT MIGHT BECOME A FEATURE OF MODERN SYSTEMS?

  • DevOps becomes integrated Co-Pilots via LLMs
  • FinOps gets built into the systems, like vMotion from VMware
  • Pre-Testing, Pre-Planning gets built in (like System Initiative)
  • Chaos engineering gets built-in
  • Collaboration gets built-in
  • The OS becomes like containers and gets deterministic
  • Upgrades are built-in
  • Training, Docs, Examples are built-in

LESSONS LEARNED

  • The cross the chasm adoption isn’t just for a specific technology, it’s for bigger systems too
  • Rarely does the new thing completely replace the old thing (mobile excluded)
  • Innovation will need to continue to be creative (e.g. open source, pricing, etc.)
  • “Failures” are usually just incremental steps
