Abstract: An enterprise software system access manager saves cookies for users' sessions on client devices but creates server-side sessions on the fly when needed for the users to access certain features, when there is a constraint on the client device, or due to application policies. The server-side session objects can have references to the client-side cookies and can have key-value pairs added to them instead of the associated cookie.

Abstract: A server computing architecture is provided that uses minimal download features and includes error failover functionality. A server computer may receive an electronic page request and calculate a delta between a known static baseline electronic page and the requested electronic page. The static baseline electronic page may include an electronic page without content that utilizes a master electronic page. The master electronic page may include shared content for electronic pages associated with a website. The server computer may further determine whether one more errors are associated with rendering the calculated delta, render a payload comprising only the calculated delta upon determining an absence of the one or more errors and failover to one or more options upon determining that the one or more errors are associated with rendering the calculated delta.

Abstract: Methods, systems, and apparatus are described providing social networking engines. Specifically, the present specification relates to a method for implementing software containers implementing social network engines that may be configured to act in a zero-knowledge environment. In such implementations, all information pertaining to the social network engine associated with a user that is stored in the container is solely that of a user unless explicitly shared by the user. In some implementations, the containers may be configured to participate in a publish-and-subscribe network in order to share information. In addition, the containers may be provisioned with controls so that global operators may comply with local privacy rules.
