Abstract

This report aims at presenting the potential and issues of cloud-native applications as the new generation applications in software development. Microservices architecture, using the concept of containers, and CI/CD have helped in providing flexibility and improved time for the organization needed to deploy the application. However, the report reveals that the applications of microservices have some drawbacks, including- security issues, managing the microservices paradigms, and lack of skilled people. Therefore, the future cloud-native technologies will include artificial intelligence; machine learning; serverless; and security. This paper is beneficial to any organization that wishes to evaluate, design or implement cloud-native environments.
