Abstract: Systems and methods for managing data are disclosed. One method can comprise receiving a data request at a first data agent and determining whether the first data agent is configured to satisfy the data request. If the first data agent is configured to satisfy the data request, the data request can be processed via the first data agent. If the data agent is not configured to satisfy the data request, the data request can be transmitted to a second data agent.

Abstract: Systems and methods for generating software components are disclosed. In an aspect, one method can comprise receiving one or more configuration options, wherein each of the one or more configuration options comprises parameter information and mapping each option to an interface element based. The method may further comprise presenting an interface comprising one or more of the interface elements, receiving a selection of the one or more interface elements, and generating a software component such as a plug-in instance based upon the one or more configuration options.

Abstract: A system and method that integrates a plurality of media service systems offering different multimedia services such as media storage, syndication, delivery, and billing services. The system and method also provides automated file transcoding. In embodiment, a method of the present invention includes receiving a plurality of physical media files, organizing the plurality of physical media files so that different bit-rates and formats of a single source material are organized into a media database entity, receiving user specified delivery settings for the distribution of the physical media file, generating a release database entity storing the delivery settings of the physical media file, generating an address indicating the storage location of the release, and transmitting the address to a remote computing device.

Abstract: Content ingest can comprise the storage of content and the logging of the descriptive and technical metadata necessary to identify and locate the content. The methods and systems provided herein relate to content ingest utilizing multiple phase processing to account for both standard and non-standard metadata.

Abstract: A system and method for processing content access rights and/or entitlement rights are disclosed. A method, in one aspect, provides for receiving a selection of a content option, requesting access information associated with the selected content option, receiving access information comprising location information relating to a compatible format, requesting access rights from a first service associated with the location information, wherein the first service requests an access decision relating to the selected content option from a second service based upon the access rights, and receiving the access rights.

Abstract: Systems and methods for validation are disclosed. In an aspect, a method can comprise receiving a selection of a validation rule, the validation rule including a validation element, receiving a selection of a triggering event associated with the validation rule, and validating data using the validation rule and in response to the triggering event.

Abstract: Content ingest can comprise the storage of content and the logging of the descriptive and technical metadata necessary to identify and locate the content. The methods and systems provided herein relate to content ingest utilizing multiple phase processing to account for both standard and non-standard metadata.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to methods and systems for queuing events. In one aspect, a method is disclosed that receives or creates an event and inserts the event into a queue. The method determines at least one property of the event and associates a priority with the event based on the property. The method then processes the event in accordance with its priority.
