I mean, Kubernetes became a thing after Docker became a thing before(and so on, all the way down to VMs), so it's reasonable to assume that something new will eventually emerge and become the industry-standard.

#2Something will almost certainly replace Kubernetes at some point, but I'm fairly certain what replaces it will look a LOT like it.
By that I mean, entirely API driven, declarative, etc.
Re: Ask HN: What do you think will come after Kubernetes?
#3Something compatible with the Kubernetes API.

#4An abstract layer to automate the creation of k8s which is an abstract layer to automate application deployment and application management
What we need is an abstract layer to automate the systems underneath so we can leverage that abstraction and create more complexity
There are still some folks who understand the abstraction all the way up and down. We cant have that

#5The pendulum swings back somehow and we'll have offline capable personal computers again.

Like Dynamo did with Mongo XD

#7I think Kubernetes will be a part of things (as Docker still is) but it'll be the next level of abstraction -- the thing that turns Kubernetes into Heroku.
There's been a few popping up recently, time will tell who wins

#8There will have to be something to solve all the problems that are created by Kubernetes, which itself exists to solve the problems with Docker, which exists to solve the problems with VMs, which exist to solve the problems with Operating Systems.
I can't wait for the next layer of complexity to be added. It will no doubt be called something like WizzlyBobATron.

#10I think there will be a rise in monoliths and a trend towards reducing as much distributed state as possible.
I think this will be driven by a few trends:
- Very fast disks to store data SQLite style, auto replicated transparently at the disk level.
- Typed languages becoming more usable (tooling and language improvements), which makes it easier to design and operate systems (stack traces vs distributed debugging/tracing).
- Improvements in Heroku-like systems from AWS/GCP etc.
