Publication number: 20100174734Abstract: Tools and techniques for asynchronous database updates between client applications and search utilities are provided. These tools may receive indications of updates occurring within a workspace in which two or more users are collaborating. Updates to the collaborative workspace may be committed to a collaboration database maintained internally by a collaboration application. The tools may generate request to commit these updates to a search utility, so that the updates are searchable. The search utility maintains a search database that is decoupled from and operates independently of the collaboration database. The tools may increment a notification counter associated with the collaborative workspace, with the notification counter tracking how many requests to commit updates are pending. Finally, the tools may send the request to commit the update to the search database asynchronously with respect to the collaboration database.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 2, 2009Publication date: July 8, 2010Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Alan Tarik Norbauer, Alexei Evdokimov, Ransom Lloyd Richardson, Seth David Goldstein
