Cloud computing is no longer new. For most organizations, it’s not a matter of “if”, it’s more about how much with a focus on the big three: AWS, Azure, and GCP. Container technologies such as Kubernetes (aka k8s) and Docker are having a large impact on cloud computing, as well as on software architecture. This is perhaps most clear when thinking about service-oriented, or microservice, software architectures and how they can be used to leverage cloud- and container-based environments. It is hard to imagine any enterprise development scenario where one or more of these trends would not be high on the list of critical skills.
