👉 URI (Uniform Resource Identifier) computing is a paradigm that leverages URIs as first-class resources, treating them as data objects with unique identifiers that can be manipulated, queried, and linked across different systems. It emphasizes the use of URIs to represent resources—such as files, services, or data—enabling seamless integration and interoperability in distributed environments. By structuring data as URIs, systems can dynamically discover, access, and interact with resources using standardized protocols (e.g., HTTP), fostering a web-like ecosystem where resources are interconnected and accessible via their unique identifiers. This approach underpins modern APIs, content management systems, and decentralized applications, allowing data and services to be shared, reused, and orchestrated across diverse platforms efficiently.
