In fact, a recent global survey of 700 CIOs found that 86% of companies are now using cloud-native technologies and platforms, such as Kubernetes, microservices, and containers, to accelerate innovation and stay competitive. Gaining visibility into monolithic systems before containers, Kubernetes, and microservices was simple.

Most organisations go through an architecture modernisation effort at some point as their systems drift into a state of intolerable maintenance costs and they diverge too far from modern technological advances. This means a software architecture should be purposely designed for the most favourable business consequences.

They’re fun, but I don’t find them a good source of insight into what’s happening in technology.
