THE CLOUD-NATIVE MOVEMENT WAS BUILD ON A FEW PRINCIPLES

• Public Cloud would be the dominant place to run apps
• Public Cloud would be cheaper to build/operate than DIY or on-premises
• Just use open source software
• Build new applications with microservices
• Multi-cloud is not a real thing anyone will do

IT’S VERY RARE THAT ANY NEW TECHNOLOGY REPLACES THE PREVIOUS TECHNOLOGY

• CNCF / KubeConEU just had 10,000 people in attendance
• We’re seeing backlash against some of the modern technologies as “one-size fits-all”.
• We’re seeing cloud-cost-optimization becoming a focus area
• We saw layoffs, and we continue to see companies not invest in internal skills
• One story doesn’t make a trends (but it is easy to repeat)
• From lulls and economic downturns have historically come great technology advances
• Companies value experience and expertise
