I think that a move towards "content application servers" will begin. An example of such a product is ipedo. You can throw stuff into it (mainly XML) and query and retrieve it using standards like SOAP XQuery, etc. But there will be perhaps a limited window of opportunity for such companies as these features become commoditized and built into the operating systems.
A nascent technology which has great promise (and which will also further commoditize the content application server market) is DeltaV (think WebDAV with versioning). I'm waiting for more serious implementations of this standard.
I also think that hosted services by tier 1 companies are also likely next year.
