Abstract: Some embodiments provide a novel network control system that uses secondary input queues to receive and store inputs from multiple input sources prior to moving the inputs to a primary input queue for processing. The secondary input queues provide a separate storage for each input source so that the inputs from the different sources do not get mixed with each other to ensure that fixed points and barriers sent to the controller maintain their integrity.

Abstract: In accordance with an embodiment, described herein is a system and method for providing an end-to-end lifecycle in a multi-tenant application server environment. A lifecycle manager enables configuration integration across different components, for example application servers, traffic directors or load balancers, and database or other components, which may have their own partition-specific configurations. In accordance with an embodiment, the end-to-end lifecycle infrastructure includes a plugin-based mechanism which enables the different components within a multi-tenant application server environment to use a lifecycle plugin to provide their own component-specific lifecycle functionality. In accordance with an embodiment, the system includes support for a tenant onboarding functionality, which can be used to onboard a tenant for a service to a particular partition. In accordance with an embodiment, the system supports the use of a global runtime within the multi-tenant application server environment.

Abstract: Systems for managing content in a cloud-based service platform. A server in a cloud-based environment is interfaced with storage devices that hold one or more stored objects accessible by two or more users. The stored objects comprise folders and files as well as other objects such as workflow objects that are associated with the folders or the files. The workflow objects comprise workflow metadata that describes a workflow as a set of workflow tasks to be carried out in a progression. Processing of a workflow task and/or carrying out a portion of the progression includes modification of shared content objects. The processing or modification events are detected through workflow events, which in turn cause one or more workflow responses to be generated. Workflow responses comprise updates to the workflow metadata to record progression through the workflow and/or workflow responses comprise updates to any one or more of the stored objects.

Abstract: In various implementations, a computing device is configured to provide context to annotating inputs made during a web meeting session. In some implementations, a plurality of annotating inputs is received by a participant of a web meeting session. Each of the annotating inputs is processed to associate with a unique descriptor that corresponds to one or more of the participant, a web meeting session, a recording of at least a portion of the web meeting session, and a submitted time of the annotating input. Each annotating input is stored to generate an interaction record for referencing each annotating input to a web meeting session and, in some instances, a corresponding recorded portion of the web meeting session. In this regard, annotating inputs can be used to retrieve additional content (i.e., a portion of the recording) that is relevant to the annotating input and employed to provide additional context thereto.
