Abstract: A content source provides metadata associated with content, such as an audio signal or video data, to a social networking system. The metadata identifies characteristics of the content or specifies an action for the social networking system to perform. A content identifier associated with the metadata is generated by the social networking system, and an association between the content identifier and the metadata is stored. The content identifier is provided to the content source, which encodes the content identifier into the content (e.g., as a watermark). When a client device receives the content encoded with the content identifier, the content identifier is extracted and communicated to the social networking system in connection with a user account associated with the client device. Based on the content identifier, the social networking system retrieves the corresponding metadata and performs an action in connection with the user account based on the metadata.

Abstract: A content management system synchronizes content items across client computing systems connected by a network. Each client device has a storage allocation for synchronized shared content items. If the storage allocation for shared content items on a client device is exceeded by the request to add or edit a content item such that it is enlarged, a client application or the host of content management system selects content items to remove from residence on the client device but keep remotely on content management system. Upon removal of the selected content items, the client application creates shadow items, representing the content item but only containing the metadata of the content item. This creates sufficient space for the initial request to be completed while maintaining user access to all synchronized shared content items. The processes of replacing content items with shadow items may be completed while the client device is idle.

Abstract: Improved approaches for providing secure remote access to resources maintained on private networks are disclosed. According to one aspect, predetermined elements, such as applets, can be modified to redirect all communications to and from an application server through an intermediate server. The intermediate server in turn communicates with the application servers. According to another aspect, a communication framework can be provided to funnel communication between an applet and a server through a communication layer so as to provide managed and/or secured communications there between.

Abstract: A system regulates server load by dynamically selecting variables that directly or indirectly control the type and/or quantity of processing performed in responding to content requests, such as requests for dynamically generated web pages. For example, the system may use current load level data to vary the sizes of input data sets used to generate personalized recommendations or other content for users.

Abstract: A relay system has a router and multiple relay servers with specific network addresses on a first network. The router and servers are mutually connected by a second network. The router receives a relay-service request from a source on the first network, addressed to an address distinct from the relay servers' specific addresses. It forwards the request to the relay servers. Each relay server instructs the source to issue a relay-service request to its specific address. The server that receives the request provides the service. Two routers may be connected to different respective sub-networks of the first network and be connected to each other by the second network. The routers announce a common destination network address on the first network. The first network is configured such that only one of the routers receives a data packet addressed to the common address, which it forwards onto the second network.

Abstract: A system is described to create and transmit a streamable ZIP file container. The streamable ZIP file container contains stream metadata, files, and a central directory. The stream metadata, files, and central directory can be saved in a contiguous stream without any intervening bytes. When the streamable ZIP file container is read by a client device that supports streamable ZIP file containers, the client device can exit the data stream without receiving the central directory. Interruptions during transmission of the ZIP file container can be resumed.

Abstract: A processing service provides content publishers and other such users with automated content processing (e.g., transcoding or other). The content publisher is enabled to provide content (e.g., media files) to an input location for applying various processing to the content. Upon determining that the content has been placed into the input store, the processing service may select an appropriate workflow to be applied to the content and execute the workflow. The workflow may be selected based on various attributes of the content, the publisher, or the input store, such as the file name, embedded metadata, file size, time of day and the like. The workflow can process the content and store the resulting content into an output store or provide the content to various viewer devices. The workflow may also be customizable by the content publisher via an API or other such interface.
