Thanks for this, but I’m still trying to wrap my head around it. Can you assist?
What I’m trying to figure out is how we can run a web app (i.e. server-side code & logic) on Autonomi, a la ASP.NET on IIS, etc. I do understand the basic principle at work here, yes—secure and private file handling—but as we know there’s a lot more to a business application than just file storage & retrieval.
For some reason I’m not able to get my head past the notion that an Autonomi-based website can only be comprised of static files, with no backend logic allowed.
e.g. If this do that, otherwise get a value from the array
Actually, this segues into a related topic that’s been on my mind for some time now.
What about data? How do we build a multi-user application that warehouses its data in a single location?
We need that Single Source of Truth™ that a central relational database provides. How do we go about using something like Entity Framework? Optimistic concurrency? Autoincrementing primary keys? Cascading deletes?
It seems a thorny problem.
Are these types of apps going to be possible at all with Autonomi?
