// Context | ||
Data is the new gold, you hear it constantly. | ||
Much of that gold, flows through Web technologies into centralized data stores of massive companies like Amazon, Google, and TikTok. | ||
The Web, however, was envisioned as a decentralized information space to which anyone could read and write information. // Remember good old Wikipedia? | ||
Todays centralization of data causes numerous problems, such as privacy related-issues and the centralization of attention. | ||
The centralization of attention and media control causes social turbulence. | ||
Such as the US ban on TikTok or more recently the ban of TikTok by France in response to protests. | ||
In a response to these crises, various initiatives are working towards re-decentralizing the Web, such as Solid and Mastodon. | ||
// Need | ||
The re-decentralization of the Web comes with various challenges to overcome since the world is not the same as it used to. | ||
These challenges range from efficient and interoperable reading and writing to expressing potentially complex usage/ access policies. | ||
Efficient reading in de context of a decentralized permissioned ecosystem has received some research attention, but writing remains rather unexplored. | ||
// Task | ||
We therefore looked at the current state of the Solid specification to investigate the problems and data dependencies updates currently face. | ||
// Object | ||
The most problematic was access path dependence, where writers of data need to explicitly specify a location to write or update data. | ||
Similar problems are present when reading data in Solid, but are abstracted through the use of a query engine. | ||
We therefore investigate the possibility of a query engine that can create/ update resources without data dependencies. | ||
// Findings | ||
Our evaluations show that such a query engine can be created by providing a structural description and has limited overhead. | ||
// Conclusion | ||
Having a data dependency free approach to update decentralized data is of huge importance in the adaptation of decentralized systems, | ||
As it allows easier management of data. | ||
// Perspectives | ||
The current implantation is limited to updating data of one federation, additional research is required to support inter-federation updates. | ||
