Abstract: A view object is generated in a target deployment unit in a design time environment of a metadata repository. The view object is modeled on a business object of a source deployment unit. The source deployment unit includes process components of a business application that is physically decoupled from the target deployment unit. A subset of attributes of the business object of the source deployment unit is selected. The subset of attributes includes at least an outbound agent and an inbound agent implemented by a generic messaging framework. The view object is modeled in the target deployment unit with the subset of attributes of the business object. The inbound agent of the view object is configured for receiving a replication message from the outbound agent of the business object, and the replication message includes replication data for configuring the view object only with data from the business object.

Abstract: Systems and methods for supporting metadata for work items stored in a web-based content management system with collaboration environment are disclosed.

Abstract: An original representation of an original set of data in a data source can be provided, and an updated representation of an updated set of data in the data source can be received. A change notification set that includes change notifications can be generated by comparing the updated representation with the original representation. The change notification set can represent a possible set of changes that yield the updated representation when starting with the original representation. The change notification set can be sent to a client of the data source. One or more requests from the client for data from the data source may be processed while obtaining the updated representation of the updated set of data. This processing can include adding one or more placeholders and matching the placeholder(s) with one or more items in the updated set of data.

Abstract: Technologies are described herein for caching variably sized access control lists (ACLs) in a data storage system utilizing page object caching. A request to access a file is received. An inode number of the requested file is identified. A hash key based on the inode number and a predefined hash value is determined. A determination is made as to whether the hash key is contained in a hash list. In response to determining that the hash key is contained in the hash list, access to a page object in the memory is provided. The page object contains an access control list (ACL) associated with the requested file. The ACL is retrieved from the page object.

Abstract: Example apparatus and methods concern dynamically expiring crowd-sourced content (CSC) in a crowd-sourced database. An example apparatus may include logic for acquiring the CSC, where the CSC is data produced by a mobile device concerning a point of interest. The example apparatus also includes logic for producing an evaluation of the CSC and logic for determining an expiration criteria based on the CSC, the evaluation, and the user. The CSC may be data about a point of interest. The evaluation may be based on the completeness, timeliness, or contents of the CSC. The expiration criteria may be established based on the evaluation of the CSC and a user profile. The expiration criteria or user profile may be manipulated based on confirmation or repudiation of the CSC by a different user or by curation of the CSC.

Abstract: A method of selecting and presenting content based on detecting an increased level of activity associated with the content is presented. The method includes providing a set of content items with associated descriptive terms. The method includes receiving user search input for identifying desired content items and, in response to the input entered by the user, presenting a subset of content items to the user. The method further includes receiving actions from the user selecting content items from the subset and analyzing the descriptive terms associated with the selected content items to detect an increased level of activity for descriptive terms associated with the content items selected by the users. The method includes, in response to receiving subsequent user search input, selecting and ordering a collection of content items based on promoting the ranking of content items associated with descriptive terms that have an increased level of recent activity.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a query plan is compressed to data in a cache at a high compression level if a runtime of a query that the query plan implements is greater than a high time threshold. The query plan is compressed to the data in the cache at a medium compression level if the runtime of the query that the query plan implements is less than the high time threshold and greater than a low time threshold. The query plan is stored to the data in the cache at an uncompressed level if the runtime of the query that the query plan implements is less than the low time threshold.

Abstract: A method and system for tracking visitors' access to web content using a searchable and size-constrained local log repository is disclosed. A repository indexer receives visitor logs from a remote source and indexes the logs to include a usage field indicating when or how frequently an associated visitor log was accessed from a local log repository by a report request manager. The local log repository stores the logs and is size constrained. A repository manager removes a subset of the logs in the local log repository based on parameters within the subset of the logs' usage field. The report request manager receives a request from a requestor for a report indicating visitors' access to a content object, searches for logs within the local log repository pertinent to the request, aggregates data across the logs responsive to the search, and generates a report presenting the aggregated data.

Abstract: An object storage system, such as a content addressed storage system, manages replication of objects across network locations to balance storage space and data security. Network locations set a policy of replicating each object at the object's primary network location and a secondary network location. The secondary network location creates a first replica of the object and a virtual unique identifier representing a second replica of the object at the secondary network location. Creation of the second replica is suppressed unless the first replica becomes invalid so that storage space is conserved without substantially increasing the risk of loss of information represented by the object.

Abstract: In a compression processing storage system, using a pool of compression cores, the compression cores are assigned to process either compression operations, decompression operations, or decompression and compression operations, which are scheduled for processing. A maximum number of the compression cores are set for processing only the decompression operations, thereby lowering a decompression latency. A minimal number of the compression cores are allocated for processing the compression operations, thereby increasing compression latency. Upon reaching a throughput limit for the compression operations that causes the minimal number of the plurality of compression cores to reach a busy status, the minimal number of the plurality of compression cores for processing the compression operations is increased.
