Abstract: An Enterprise Service Bus (ESB) system includes a shared storage that stores data corresponding to files, a file system, and ESB infrastructure functions. The ESB system includes a metadata registry storing metadata associated with the ESB infrastructure functions, separate from the ESB infrastructure functions, and includes storage location information of the ESB infrastructure functions. The ESB system includes a processor configured to receive a request for access to the file system. The processor sends a portion of the metadata registry to a client device, the portion including a portion of the metadata and a directory structure identifying a set of the ESB infrastructure functions that the client device is authorized to access, the portion of the metadata allowing the client device to access a first infrastructure function of the set based on the storage location information. The processor further provides the first infrastructure function to the client device.

Abstract: Shared storage architectures and methods are provided. A particular shared storage architecture is a system including shared storage including data and file system metadata separated from the data. The file system metadata includes location data specifying storage location information related to the data. Services are provided from service providers to service consumers through the shared storage.

Abstract: In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, systems and methods disclosed herein enable synergy among a group of users by providing a real-time, secure collaboration environment that allows for cooperative interaction and decision making and provide the ability for users to simultaneously view, revise, and review a document or multimedia file that resides in a shared data storage location. Real-time, low latency, rich collaboration between producers and consumers provides organization efficiency, and this collaboration provides real-time, low latency transmission of data.

Abstract: In accordance with one or more embodiments of the present disclosure, systems and methods described herein provide for transferring data over one or more networks. A storage area network is adapted to communicate with the one or more networks. A first component is adapted to route data to and from the storage area network. A second component is adapted to route data to and from the storage area network. A gateway component is adapted to control the routing of data between the first and second components and the storage area network. The storage area network is adapted to separate metadata from the data and store the metadata in a secure server positioned behind the gateway component.

Abstract: A method includes providing a persistent common view of a virtual shared storage system. The virtual shared storage system includes a first shared storage system and a second shared storage system, and the persistent common view includes information associated with data and instructions stored at the first shared storage system and the second shared storage system. The method includes automatically updating the persistent common view to include third information associated with other data and other instructions stored at a third shared storage system in response to adding the third shared storage system to the virtual shared storage system.

Abstract: A method includes providing a persistent common view of data, services, and infrastructure functions accessible via one or more shared storage systems of a plurality of shared storage systems of a virtual shared storage system. The method includes applying different governance policies to two or more shared storage systems of the plurality of shared storage systems. The method includes restricting access to first content accessible via a first shared storage system of the plurality of shared storage systems based on a security level associated with a data consumer. The first content corresponds to at least one of first data, a first service, and a first infrastructure function.

Abstract: The method and apparatus for determining group delay of a satellite communications channel includes a low frequency vector network analyzer and microwave swept synthesizer which together generate modulated signals. A sample of the signals transmitted to a satellite and the signals retransmitted from the satellite are compared in the network analyzer to obtain the phase of the signals. The phase of a reference signal is measured prior to and after each test frequency of the communications channel. A quasi-real time phase reference can be obtained by interpolation. Thus, the reference phase due to movement of the satellite with respect to the earth station during group delay measurement may be removed.
