Decentralization drives much of the thinking of modern systems, including Tim Berners-Lee’s ideas for where the web should go to recover its potential. There are common benefits touted by advocates of these approaches, but as with all things, there are some problems that are better met with some technologies than others.
Join Brian Sletten to explore the major decentralized approaches and their applicability to specific problems. You’ll dive into major ideas (distributed hash tables, content-based addressing, etc.) as well as how they’re used in actual, running systems. You’ll also discover where they fall short, where they run into regulatory or governance issues and security concerns, and more.
Topics include:
