I don't know about you, but I would love to own a piece of the Fast & Furious movie franchise.

I recently saw a preview for the ninth installment set to debut in the spring of 2020. I'm a big fan of the action-adventure genre in general, and this series of movies in particular.

It features a group of misfits who transform from street racing hot rods to become an international espionage team.

Don't scoff, there's big money here. To date, the nine movies have brought in more than $5 billion.

Here's the thing. Something similar is happening in the high-margin software sector.

Technically speaking, it's a field known as "DevOps." The term refers to the $50 billion up for grabs by helping companies make a transition from legacy systems to cutting-edge digital tech.

Today, I'm going to show you what I call "Software's Fast & Furious." And I'll reveal a tech stock that will more than double the market's return for years to come.

Check it out...

Hollywood's Winning Formula

You have to hand it to Hollywood, it certainly knows a winning formula when it sees one.

For casual observers, the original Fast & Furious that debuted in the summer of 2001 might have seemed like disposable fun - a Los Angeles cop enlists the help of a childhood friend to thwart a string of delivery truck hijackings... action and adventure ensue.

But it went on to become one of the best franchises in movie history.

Don’t Sit This One Out! If you had invested in Apple after the 4G rollout, you could have made 56,465%. Now, 5G is going to create a new generation of millionaires, and you could be one of them. Click here now.

I believe the comparison to DevOps - essentially software development practices that align closely with business objectives - is more than a little appropriate. Fact is, this sector of the software industry doesn't get a lot of attention.

And yet, it's a highly profitable high-wire act. Companies in such fields as telecom, manufacturing, and finance need these "Fast & Furious" tools for high-tech automation, collaboration, and application management.

Industry analysts note that DevOps began quietly about 10 years ago. But a new report from Cowen & Co. says that last year the field was already worth roughly $7.9 billion, a figure the firms says will triple by 2023.

A Growing Industry

But that forecast may be quite conservative. For its part, Morgan Stanley projects that by 2022 DevOps and related services will be worth roughly $50 billion.

Make no mistake. "Fast & Furious Software" crews are set to have a pervasive impact on how companies operate their tech systems.

Consider that market research firm Gartner says by the end of next year, roughly 80% of IT organizations will adopt at least some type of DevOps programs. That's just shy of double the 41% rate in 2017.

As you might imagine with a new field rapidly taking root across the tech ecosystem, DevOps contains several key trends that are pushing adoption.

Tech consulting firm Squadex says that five trends in particular are helping the field rapidly gain ground. They include:

  1. Automating software writing and inspection to reduce time-consuming human errors.
  2. Serverless Computing so that IT groups can scale up their work and write apps strictly in the cloud.
  3. Everything as Code in which apps and even operating systems are treated as computer source code rather than stand-alone items.
  4. Self-healing Infrastructure that allows the platforms to find and fix problems on the fly without human intervention.
  5. Machine Learning so that the software can comb through reams of data, make sense of it all quickly and then automatically learn from the patterns.

In other words, a leader in this field has to have robust products and a very agile sense of how to help clients master the DevOps landscape.

Michael A. Robinson is a 36-year Silicon Valley veteran and one of the top tech and biotech financial analysts working today. That's because, as a consultant, senior adviser, and board member for Silicon Valley venture capital firms, Michael enjoys privileged access to pioneering CEOs, scientists, and high-profile players. And he brings this entire world of Silicon Valley "insiders" right to you...

  • He was one of five people involved in early meetings for the $160 billion "cloud" computing phenomenon.
  • He was there as Lee Iacocca and Roger Smith, the CEOs of Chrysler and GM, led the robotics revolution that saved the U.S. automotive industry.
  • As cyber-security was becoming a focus of national security, Michael was with Dave DeWalt, the CEO of McAfee, right before Intel acquired his company for $7.8 billion.

This all means the entire world is constantly seeking Michael's insight.

In addition to being a regular guest and panelist on CNBC and Fox Business, he is also a Pulitzer Prize-nominated writer and reporter. His first book Overdrawn: The Bailout of American Savings warned people about the coming financial collapse - years before the word "bailout" became a household word.

Silicon Valley defense publications vie for his analysis. He's worked for Defense Media Network and Signal Magazine, as well as The New York Times, American Enterprise, and The Wall Street Journal.

And even with decades of experience, Michael believes there has never been a moment in time quite like this.

Right now, medical breakthroughs that once took years to develop are moving at a record speed. And that means we are going to see highly lucrative biotech investment opportunities come in fast and furious.

To help you navigate the historic opportunity in biotech, Michael launched the Bio-Tech Profit Alliance.

His other publications include: Strategic Tech Investor, The Nova-X Report, Bio-Technology Profit Alliance and Nexus-9 Network.
