Over the course of my time in IT (6 years now) I've seen how the industry has been trending away from insourcing to outsourcing, from centralized architectures to distributed architectures (i.e. CLOS, HCI), from on-prem to offsite, from private to public, from combined to separate data/control planes. I also have realized - from talking to old-timers - that technology and management trends tend to be cyclical. With that in mind - I'm curious to know if you think the trends we're seeing are here to stay, or if you believe the industry will course correct and start swinging in the opposite direction?
Sidenote: If you do think the pendulum will swing in the opposite direction, is it already starting to? Where do you think we are in this "cycle"?
