Abstract: Embodiments of methods and systems consistent with the present invention prevent unauthorized overwriting of shared data by tenants in a provider-tenant system by granting and verifying permissions associated with the tenant. Permissions may be related to table links to shared data stored at a provider database. Thus, tenants may write only to certain designated data structures or groups of data structures, and any attempted unauthorized access creates an exception.

Abstract: Exemplary methods and systems consistent with the present invention may allow for updating a client. In exemplary embodiments, information about a plurality of maintenance activities applied to a server may be recorded. The recorded information may then be accessed when updating the client to reflect the maintenance activities applied to the server. The client may then be updated based on the recorded information.

Abstract: Embodiments of methods and systems consistent with the present invention allow for updating tenants in a hosted provider-tenant system by analyzing data structures associated with a particular tenant to determine a delta between the data structures associated with the particular tenant and new or modified data structures at the provider. Data structures may thus be created or updated at the provider and then compared to existing data structures stored in association with one or more tenants in the system. In this way, updates may be easily determined and imported to multiple tenants in the provider-tenant system.

Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for hosting tenants over a network in a computer-based environment in which a provider may store a shared data structure having shared data. A tenant receives a request for a shared data structure and retrieves the shared data structure from the provider based on shared metadata identifying the locations of shared data structures stored at the provider. In addition, based on extension metadata, the tenant retrieves an extended data structure including tenant-specific elements unique to the first tenant. The tenant server then combines the shared and extended data structures into a combined data structure including the tenant-specific elements.

Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for hosting tenants in a computer-based environment in which a provider stores a shared data structure. Each of the tenants may communicate with a middleware module storing metadata referencing the shared data structure and a tenant-specific data structure specific to the first tenant for access by the first tenant. Based on the metadata and in response to a data request from the first tenant, the system may the query the provider or the first tenant for requested data and provide the requested data based on the querying.

Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for hosting tenants over a network in a computer-based environment in which a provider may store a shared data structure having shared data. To register a tenant space during deployment, the provider copies a tenant template stored in a database, populates the copy of the template with initial data, and then registers the dummy template with a system directory. After deploying the tenant space based on the tenant template, the provider replaces the initial data of the registered template with tenant-specific data obtained from the deployed tenant space.

Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for hosting tenants over a network in a computer-based environment in which a provider may store a shared data structure having shared data. A tenant sever retrieves a shared data structure including data elements shared by the plurality of tenants. In addition, tenant sever retrieves a corresponding extended data structure including tenant-specific elements modified for the tenant. From the shared data structure and the extended data structure, tenant server generates a combined data structure including the tenant-specific elements.

Abstract: Exemplary methods and systems may clone a tenant database and send updates to the clone. By doing so, methods and systems may determine a difference between the clone and the tenant, making it possible to test upgrades for a tenant based on the difference. With this capability, a provider-tenant system may upgrade tenant business applications and customize tenant databases.

Abstract: During welding with high output power, the gaps between the pieces being joined may not exceed a maximal gap width. A process for laser beam welding is provided, which on the one hand ensures maintaining (not exceeding) a maximal gap width between the sheets and on the other hand makes possible a maximal utilization of the achievable welding speed. The sheets, prior to welding, are first spot welded, wherein they are clamped only during this spot welding in order to ensure the maintenance of a maximum gap width.

Abstract: In many cases, the coating material of coated sheet metal has a significantly lower boiling point than the sheet metal material. Thus, an explosive vaporization of coating material can occur when sheet metal of this type is joined by welding, negatively affecting the quality of the connection. To improve the connection quality, narrow gaps are created by means of spacers, allowing the vaporized coating material to escape through said gaps. The spacers are created e.g. by the laser radiation of the sheet metal. The aim of the invention is to reduce the variations in distance between the sheet metal sheets by the appropriate shaping of the spacers. This is achieved by a method, in which the laser beam executes a movement comprising transverse and longitudinal components through and/or around the center of its processing surface. This creates a topographical modification with a spherical form, i.e. with an apex radius that is greater than the height of said topographical modification.

Abstract: A laser weld seam with reduced end crater and a process for production thereof are provided. The seam end is provided at a location, which exhibits a excessive material relative to the surrounding surface or thereby, that the seam towards the seam end exhibits a counter-running direction change of its preferred direction, which is designed in such a manner, that as a consequence of the interaction between cooling forward and counter-running seam a backfill of the melt towards the seam end occurs.

Abstract: A method and system are provided for transmitting quality criteria of tributary signals of a synchronous network hierarchy such as SDH or SONET, which, at the transmitting end are combined to form a higher-order multiplex signal and are transmitted in a higher-order transport module via a synchronous network. In this case, the tributary signals are monitored and different tributary quality criteria about the state of each of the tributary signals are generated. The tributary quality criteria are combined to form monitoring combinations and inserted into the overhead of the higher-order transport module to be transmitted.

Abstract: The present invention discloses methods and systems for hosting tenants over a network in a computer-based environment in which a provider may store a shared data structure having shared data. A tenant database located at a first tenant may store tenant-specific data structures specific to the first tenant and a data structure link referencing the shared data structures. Methods and systems consistent with the invention may then receive a request for the shared data from a tenant server of the first tenant; retrieve, in response to the data request and based on the data structure link, the shared data; and provide the retrieved shared data to the tenant server.
