Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to the distribution of database key permissions. A database system may distribute first permission information to a plurality of database nodes that identifies a distribution of key range permissions to ones of the plurality of database nodes. A given key range permission being distributed to a given database node may permit that database node to write records whose keys fall within a key range associated with the given key range permission. The database system may receive, from a first database node, a request for a first key range permission provisioned to a second database node. The database system may modify the first permission information to derive second permission information that provisions the first key range permission to the first database node instead of the second database node. The database system may distribute the second permission information to ones of the plurality of database nodes.

Abstract: Modifying direct message (DM) communication membership is described. A communication platform can receive, in association with a DM communication and from a user computing device of a user of a first group of users, a first request to modify the first group of users. The communication platform can send a second request to designate whether to include context data associated with the DM communication in a new or existing DM communication. Based on receiving an indication to include at least a portion of the context data associated with the DM communication in the new or existing DM communication, the communication platform can generate the new DM communication, wherein the new DM communication is associated with a second group of users different than the first group of users, and at least the portion of the context data is associated with the new DM communication.

Abstract: Disclosed herein are system, method, and computer program product embodiments for providing offline capabilities to customizable live applications in a cloud collaboration platform. The cloud collaboration platform may provide offline functions and a data application programming interface to devices connecting to the cloud collaboration platform. The offline capabilities allow devices to store data related to documents and customizable live applications in a local cache. The offline capabilities retrieve data from and store modifications to data within the local cache. The cloud collaboration platform may subsequently process the changes and determine if conflicts arise, resolving conflicts where appropriate and possible. The cloud collaboration platform may then determine a final state for a record, return the final state to the devices, and update the local caches.

Abstract: Computing systems, for example, multi-tenant systems create data centers in a cloud platform using a cloud platform infrastructure language that is cloud platform independent. The system receives a cloud platform independent declarative specification describing a new datacenter to be created or modifications to an existing datacenter deployed on a cloud platform. The system compiles the cloud platform independent declarative specification to generate a metadata representation of the data center. If the datacenter is existing, the system generates a metadata representation representing modifications to the datacenter to obtain a desired datacenter. The system sends the metadata representation and a set of instructions for execution on a target cloud platform. The target cloud platform executes the instructions to configure the data center. The system provides users with access to the computing resources of the data center configured by the target cloud platform.

Abstract: Embodiments of apparatus, systems, and methods are described for creating and managing an abstract, API-based infrastructure base model. The API-based model can abstract infrastructure assets, such as infrastructure components or connections between components, into a metadata model using standardized syntax and interfaces, for defining and building an infrastructure.

Connections and infrastructure components can be made available for selection, arrangement, and grouping to build complex infrastructure models without requiring complex API coding by the user. Other infrastructure models having different API definitions can be by abstracted to standardize the assets for building new APIs. The APIs can be further modified and exported to another or the same implementation project.
