As always, the core issue is complexity. We expect our programs to do much more than before, and that requires additional complexity. But we already know how to deal with complexity: we add a layer of abstraction. The problem, in my view, is that current abstraction layers are either too low-level (e.g., React) or tackling only part of the problem (e.g., AWS Lambda). With GridWhale, I'm working on creating a layer of abstraction that appears as a single, unified machine that you have full control over, but is actually running on a distributed, scalable micro-services architecture. I've got a long way to go, but I think this is the right direction.
