In the article, What Is Web 3.0 & Why It Matters, Fabric Venture partners, Max Mersch and Richard Muirhead, wrote that whereas “Web 2.0 was driven by the advent of mobile, social and cloud, Web 3.0 is built largely on three new layers of technological innovation: edge computing, decentralised data networks and artificial intelligence.”They also postulated that the shift to Web 3.0 is spreading the data centre out to the edge. “Large legacy data centres are being supplemented by a multitude of powerful computing resources spread across phones, computers, appliances, sensors and vehicles which are forecast to produce and consume 160 (!) times more data in 2025 as compared to 2010 (Ocean Protocol Research).”Gartner analyst Avivah Litan says Web 3.0 will transform us from Web 2.0’s monetization via surveillance capitalism and advertising to monetization built directly into the protocol that is equally available to any connected user.In this PodChats for FutureCIO, we speak to Ulyses Ty, Head of Applications Services, Asia Service Centre, Sun Life Financial, for his take on where Web 3.0 will take the enterprise and how IT leaders will drive the adoption of Web 3.0 in the enterprise?1.
