Thanks! Although I'm not familiar with data federation or any web 3.0 spec, I did some light reading and it seems like we are already working in the data federation direction. Consider this definition:
”Data federation is an aspect of data virtualization where the data stored in a heterogeneous set of autonomous data stores are made accessible to data consumers as one integrated data store by using on-demand data integration.” Since Lowdefy is only the application layer and we connect to any data store, an app can easily for example pull data from two different data bases and merge the data on the client through the _mql operator and display the combined data result in a chart to a user as if it is one. The same can be said for writing data, for instance single webform writing some parts of the form to various different data stores can easily be built. It is also quite obvious that a implementation like this does not scale very well for larger data sets, if the federation is done on the client, so a server implementation can really make sense. I’d be interested to learn more if you have some interesting resources to share? |
