The role of the application developers will change dramatically in the next 10 years, because of advances in smart software, availability of enterprises applications and COTS, artificial intelligence etc. Given this environment, traditional application developers, or software engineers may have to learn in data science, cloud operations, and security. More and more computing processes are taking place in the cloud. These are areas that will be in high demand, as a more complex, data-driven market becomes the new norm. Requirements of Data science have been building up to this for several years, and it’s never been truer than it is right now that big data is king. Companies are looking for employees who can take huge amounts of information and analyze them for insights. Without robust systems in place to prevent security breaches that can lead to information theft, a company will ultimately lose the trust of its consumers. Because of this, cybersecurity is one of those evergreen skills that will always be needed.
