Solid:
Solid is a new approach to the
world wide web that radically changing the way web apps works today resulting
in true data ownership and as well as improved privacy.
Solid basically is a proposed set of
conventions and tools for building completely decentralized social application
based on linked Data principle which features as a modular and
extensible and relies on W3C standards and protocols.
Basically, Solid offers:
·
True data ownership:
User should
have the freedom to choose where their data resides and who should access it, by
decoupling content from application itself, user can now do so.
·
Modular design:
Since
applications are decoupled from the data they produce, user will be able to
avoid vendor lock in by switching apps and personal data storage servers,
without loosing any data and connections.
·
Reusing existing data:
Developer can easily develop new apps and
different can easily works in different creative ideas all while using the
current data created by the other existing application.

So, what is Linked Data Principle?
Linked data principle is a set of the best
practice to publish structured data on the web which are:
1.
Use URLS as names for things.
2.
Use HTTP URls so, that people can look up to those
names.
3.
When someone look up for the URL, provide the
useful information.
4.
Include links to the other URLs so that the user
can discover more things.
More precisely, linked data
principle standardized the representation and the access of the data in the web
on the other hand it governs the set of rules to propagate to set the hyperlink
between the different data sources, these hyperlinks connect all the linked
data into a single global data graph.
How does the Solid works?
Solid works after
when the user register for the SOLIDPOD where the photos, videos, texts, documents
or many more content can be stored. This SOLIDPOD can be anywhere in the world
where you want to keep it and then you shear the content to your friends or
anyone with the privileged of read, write and execute. SOLIDPOD also manages the
password and even small amount of data with your permission. Since you own your
data so you are free to move it anywhere you want without any interruption of
service and also it stores maximum of your data with your permission you do not
need to fill your details in any app since POD stores your data with your
permission. Things saved for one app are available for you and you never have
to sync since your data stays with you which increase the privacy of your data.
SOLIDPOD are like
secure USB for web which you can excess from anywhere. You can have as many P0Ds
as you like they live in social Solid Enabled web servers.
