InfluxDB
Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
It's more of an overview of different projects with this goal, among which Solid: https://solidproject.org is the third link under "More information", and several Solid apps are listed.
If you're looking for secure sharing of private data on IPFS you should check out Peergos [0][1][2]. Disclaimer - I'm a co-founder. The model there is each user needs at least one Peergos instance storing their data, normally their home-server. We've designed it so that people should never have to see an encryption key, or cryptographic hash, nor know what pinning is. As far as apps go, we plan to build a sandbox and api in the browser for running untrusted apps served directly from Peergos which you can grant fine grained permissions to your data in Peergos. The sandbox here would be designed so an app couldn't even exfiltrate data via loading an external img tag.

Yes, Solid comprises open specifications and anyone can implement it. The open source implementation that sees most development atm is https://github.com/solid/community-server, which is nearing a 1.0 release.
