Generating the case model includes obtaining a case fragment expression, executing the case fragment expression using data gathered from a data source to obtain a case fragment identifier, selecting, from multiple case fragments, a case fragment corresponding to the case fragment identifier, and populating the case model with the case fragment. Case fragment management also includes storing the case model.

Abstract: Representational state transfer (REST) based geo-aware content transfer includes a REST server configured for receiving an application programming interface (API) request from a client device. The REST server obtains a upload universal resource locator (URL) targeting a caching server that is geographically closest to the client device, constructs an upload link containing the upload URL and a completion callback, and sends the upload link to the client device. The client device uses the upload URL to upload content to the caching server. The caching server interprets the completion callback to obtain a completion URL and, upon completion of content uploading, makes a REST API call using the completion URL. Responsive to the REST API call, the REST server executes an inbound operation to complete the uploading to a content management system and returns the content URL to the caching server which sends the content URL to the client device.

Abstract: Systems, methods and computer program products for providing a multi-tenant application execution environment that provides an object metadata service for managing application configuration in the multi-tenant environment. In one embodiment, a system has an application manager, a bundle manager, and a deployment manager. The application manager captures application metadata for a corresponding version of an application and defines a corresponding bundle which contains metadata that configures the version of the application. The bundle manager validates each bundle and stores the validated bundle in a bundle library in a data storage device. The deployment manager retrieves a master schema and one or more of the bundles from the bundle library and installs the retrieved master schema and the retrieved bundles, generating a tenant schema which is accessible by a corresponding tenant of the multi-tenant environment that has subscribed to the version of the application.

Abstract: A method for referencing and updating objects in a shared resource environment. A reference counter counts is incremented for every use of an object subtype in a session and decremented for every release of an object subtype in a session. A session counter is incremented upon the first instance of fetching an object type into a session cache and decremented upon having no instances of the object type in use in the session. When both the reference counter and the session counter are zero, the object type may be removed from the cache. When the object type needs to be updated, it is cloned into a local cache, and changes are made on the local copy. The global cache is then locked to all other users, the original object type is detached, and the cloned object type is swapped into the global cache, after which the global cache in unlocked.

Abstract: A system having an off-premises proxy server residing in a cloud computing environment and backend servers residing in an enterprise computing environment are provided. Requests received by the off-premises proxy server for access to a first, non-publicly accessible backend server are routed to a tunnel server which stores the request and waits to be polled by a tunnel agent connected to the first backend server. When the tunnel server is polled, the request is forwarded through an HTTP tunnel to the tunnel agent, which forwards it to the backend server for processing. Responsive information is returned to the tunnel agent, which forwards it through the HTTP tunnel to the tunnel server and returned through the off-premises proxy server to the remote application. Requests for access to a first, publicly accessible backend server are routed by the off-premises proxy server directly to the backend server for processing and return of responsive information.
