And when it comes to decentralized personal information, it's rare that I (anecdotally) have enough of anything to require a true DB. For instance:
- All of my health records (excluding imaging) could easily fit neatly in a 2MB JSON.
- A list of every photo I've ever taken, a file path to each, and a description would maybe take 10MB.
- A description of every event I've ever been to, and every person I've ever met might take 8MB.
- A lat, lng, and timestamp entry every minute for 10 years would be 5,256,000 entries × 26 bytes = ~130MB
Given how little overhead it takes to store the entire information of any individual, plus how infrequently it is likely to be modified, it seems there is no good reason to use databases in a decentralized context.
What do you think of this prediction?
