Predicting the future of distributed systems
There are significant changes happening in distributed systems.
These features can be used to address industry regulation, compliance, cost optimization, data lifecycle management, disaster recovery, and much more, and in a standard way across services, without having to build it directly into each application. The ability to move workloads around to meet changing requirements for availability, scalability, cost, locality, durability, latency, privacy, and security opens up even more two-way doors. I saw how these primitives solved the challenges I had been working on for fifteen years in industrial computing—flow control, bounded resource constraints, state management, concurrency, distribution, scaling, and resiliency—and not just in logical ways, but from first principles.
