As Non Volatile Memory express (NVMe) storage performance increases, application design will have to change to take better advantage of the Input/Output Operations Per Second (IOPS) and bandwidth found in locally-connected NVMe devices.

This is a hypothesis I've been developing lately now that I'm semi-retired and have more time to think. If I'm right, this will have big implications for externally attached storage with high compute requirements, which we'll get to in a moment.

I base this thinking in large part on the massive increase in Input/Output performance we have seen over the last 40 years (from 3 MB/sec to 13 GB/sec). This doesn't compare to CPU or memory performance increases, of course, and networking increases largely fall in between storage and CPU/memory.
