No amount of processing power matters if you don't have the data.
Everyone in the industry focuses too much on the processing side: objects, functions, containers, VMs, k8s, etc. but nobody really gives proper attention to data, its provenance, where it stays and where it goes, etc. I'm not saying engineers don't think about these things, they obviously have to think about it at some point. It's just that data is always accessory to the story. It's like processing is the cool kid and data is the stinky one nobody wants to approach unless you have to. Look at the 12 factor principles for example, where is data in there? How easy is it to take data from one place/cloud/database to another? Data is the raw material, it needs to be the primary concern in programming languages and architectures, not objects or functions, containers or whatever, those come after, not first.
