Next-Generation IT Architecture Radar & Adoption Map
Tracks how LLM inference acceleration, microsecond-scale asynchronous I/O, WebGPU general-purpose compute and post-quantum cryptography mature over time. Concentric rings = adoption ring (Adopt→Hold), angle = technology domain — a faithful radar plot, not just a list of cards.
DeepSeek MLA / MoE
Domain: AI_LLM
Low-rank joint attention compression and auxiliary-loss-free MoE routing are now the default for long-context, cost-efficient LLMs.
DeepSeek MLA / MoE
Low-rank joint attention compression and auxiliary-loss-free MoE routing are now the default for long-context, cost-efficient LLMs.
io_uring SendZc
Zero-copy networking on Linux 5.19+ has displaced epoll as the foundation for high-throughput services.
WebGPU & WGSL
Native GPGPU compute shaders and graphics pipelines are now broadly available across modern browsers.
eBPF Host Routing (Cilium)
Bypasses iptables and sidecar proxies to connect microservices directly at the kernel socket layer.
ML-KEM Kyber-768 (PQC)
The official NIST FIPS 203 post-quantum public-key standard is in pilot deployment on zero-trust edge gateways.
Spanner TrueTime API
Atomic clocks plus GPS hardware timing guarantee external consistency; the benchmark for globally active-active architecture.
Triton DSL Kernels
Replaces hand-written CUDA C++ with Python syntax for writing high-performance fused GPU kernels.
Classical RSA-2048 / ECC Only
Exposed to the quantum Harvest Now, Decrypt Later threat; migrate progressively to hybrid PQC.
Sidecar-Heavy Proxies
Heavy iptables forwarding and four context switches impose a steep latency tax; being replaced by Ambient Mesh / eBPF.
