1. Concept
It would be interesting if this marketplace not only had plugins for Baserow - but… an area for open data! This could be done if Baserow supports a web apis marketplace!
For example, I could have open data about a list of movies and series! So I could tell people if they want this data or rather this movie database that I have and created… they can pay me to support this! This is interesting in movie systems or online catalogs where it is necessary to update a list of movies so that the users of that system have access or information.
2. What is open data?
Open data is data that anyone can access, use and share. Governments, businesses and individuals can use open data to bring about social, economic and environmental benefits." - reference
3. Who can benefit from Baserow’s web apis marketplace?
Developers, academics, data scientists, society at large, entrepreneurs, government
4. Who could pay to have this service?
We can say that developers because they have to have updated systems with certain input data, entrepreneurs because they want updated reports about their companies, data scientists because they want to create or develop data analysis models
5. Is there any platform you can reference?
6. Notes
- The data is open, what you pay for is the support… so the market decides which data or which services are most essential to be supported
- This looks like the open-core model idea, part of the code is closed and part is open… in this case the data is open, but the support is paid
