This collection of 2023 cloud and DevOps trends and predictions will help kick your imagination into high gear and give you fuel to supercharge your technology roadmap. Dive in!

Serverless Computing

Cloud-native applications take advantage of new APIs, technologies, and infrastructure that enable them to be deployed quickly and efficiently. Serverless architectures are part of that trend. The serverless architecture market size exceeded $7B in 2020 and is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 20% from 2021 to 2027.

Serverless architecture offerings keep gaining ground. Development tools and frameworks for serverless mature and gain more traction, making serverless architectures easier and more productive.

Alternative Staffing Models to Keep Your Cloud Roadmap on Track

Cloud computing changes staffing requirements. Most companies are under the assumption that standard IT knowledge, skills, and abilities are a significant requirement to successfully operate cloud adoption. However, cloud service and delivery models require different acquisition, provision, consumption, and audit approaches. Finding qualified employees is a challenge for most companies. Therefore companies are looking to expand their service partnerships to fill gaps in their organizational composition.

Platform Engineering

The platform engineering concept is quickly growing within organizations. These teams define standards and reference architectures/implementations to speed up product development by using development best practices, continuous integration/delivery reusable pipelines, and automation of workload deployment in various platforms, among other things.

AI and Machine Learning in DevOps

Companies are leveraging model rendering and data analytics to better predict which actions or countermeasures could be deployed in case of failure and optimize their operation costs. Artificial intelligence and machine learning usage in DevOps are the newest addition to DevOps’ best practices through predictive analytics and monitoring.

The Continued Emergence of DevSecOps 

The shift from DevOps to DevSecOps is predicted to gain vast momentum in an era in which most IT giants have struggled with damaging cyberattacks. Companies are implementing more security controllers and best practices early in their application-building process to create new security and quality gates to detect and fix security flaws early in their process and code.

In Conclusion

For many companies, the future of Cloud and DevOps is exceptionally bright. The trends we’ve listed above help you gain a better grasp on this development and help you prepare for the future with your own IT management and development.
