Towards a More Effective, Decentralized Web
Offered By: EuroPython Conference via YouTube
Course Description
Overview
Explore the concept of decentralization in web technologies through this keynote address from EuroPython 2015. Delve into the rise of immutable state concepts in languages and network protocols, and examine how hash-based data structures and replication strategies are challenging the traditional client/server web service paradigm. Learn about the potential for a more secure and efficient decentralized communication topology built on technologies like git and bittorrent. Discover ongoing projects and discussions aimed at creating new web standards to facilitate mass deployment of decentralized technologies. Consider Python's potential role in this evolving landscape. Investigate topics such as rocket science, Margaret Hamilton, star networks, million-to-one architectures, mass connectivity, synchronization, immutability, namespaces, HTTPS vs IPFS, DNS, IP FS, and the ideas of Adam Gary Manko and David Graeber.
