At the NGIForum 2018, a workshop was organized on Better search for trustworthy content and objects discovery. A specfic discussion in the workshop was positioned on how we need new ways of storing, understanding and releasing data based on the semantics of the data itself and the context within which the data exists.
“We have many options how to store our data (cloud, device, edge, NAS). But is it better to rely on local external devices or buy a cloud space somewhere? Imagine you have a heart attack and you need people to access your medical history, where would you like them to go?”
This discussion evolved from the idea that our current means of storing and releasing data lack any insight into the meaning of that data, the context in which it is in use, and reliable set of rules governing how that data can be used or shared given that context in addition to automated mechanisms to enforce those rules.
