Problem
Within the Discussion post area, write 400 to 600 words that respond to the following questions with your thoughts, ideas, and comments. This will be the foundation for future discussions by your classmates. Be substantive and clear, and use examples to reinforce your ideas.
The architecture of Web 1.0 consists of following three components (Jacobs & Walsh, 2004):
a) Web resources identification: Uniform Resource Identifier (URI)
b) Interaction protocol: HyperText Transfer Protocol (HTTP)
c) Data formats: HyperText Markup Language (HTML)
Over the last 25 years, the Web has experienced several evolutions, which have been called Web 1.0, Web 2.0, Web 3.0, Web 4.0, and Web 5.0. Each of the evolutions has brought in more types of data sources, along with more advanced functional capability to the Internet infrastructure to make the Web the central place to see the convergence of many existing and new technologies. These new capabilities, in turn, support many new innovative business processes and practice through the Web. Therefore, it is important to know the basic concepts and applications of the Web, starting from its first generation. Knowing the root of the Web technology will help you to understand the reasons and consequences of the current and future changes to the Web technology, as well as the challenges of accessing the ever-growing Web data.
Complete the reading problem, and search the Library and Internet to find and study at least 2 more references that discuss the concepts and applications of the Web. Based on the results of your research, discuss the following questions:
a) What role has each of the 3 components of the architecture of Web 1.0 (URI, HTTP, and HTML) played in making the Web one of the main sources of ever-growing big data?
b) What will be the trend in terms of "performance bottleneck" to access large-scale Web data as the Web technology evolves?
c) Justify your point of view, and provide examples as necessary.
The response must include a reference list. One-inch margins, double-space, Using Times New Roman 12 pnt font and APA style of writing and citations.
