Key trends driving demand: ORM & GraphQL consolidation -- Teams standardizing on a few ORMs/Graph engines makes a single plugin reach many projects.; Event-driven architectures -- More systems are built around events/CDC which raises demand for consistent change propagation and tooling that bridges DB and app layers.; Platformization of backend dev -- Companies prefer composable platform features (managed plugins/SDKs) instead of bespoke glue code.; AI-assisted code & schema analysis -- Automated discovery of relationships and safe migration plans reduces adoption friction and time to value..
