演讲摘要：In the platform-less Web3 world, users' data will no longer be held by centralized platforms, so the values of the data will be returned to the users. However, being platform-less poses unique challenges, especially in revolutionizing the underlying data infrastructure. For example, how data can be stored without a centralized database; how users collaborate to support necessary operations of creation, reading, and update of data; how the decentralized data can be retrieved with privacy, integrity, and high efficiency; how the emerging web3 requirements be met, including validation of data ownership and tracing of usage records? In this talk, I will present the latest research and development of decentralized web3 data infrastructure and answer the above questions. More specifically, I will summarize the requirements of web3 data infrastructure, categorize the unique challenges, and propose a web3 system architecture to address the challenges. I will also introduce some of our recent research towards building the infrastructure of Web3, including collaborative edge computing and blockchain-based data sharing.
