  • Patent number: 10241815
    Abstract: A data handling system includes a managing resource that manages one or more managed resources. The managed resource inherits tags of its managing resource(s). A user of the data handling system may apply tags to a managing resource via a management console. The tags may be applied via a user interface and utilized to organize the managed and managing resources. The tags may be typeless in that the user may assign any type of meaning to any tag. Tags assigned to the managing resource are applied or inherited to the resources it manages. The pattern of inheritance repeats through ‘n’ generations as managed resources, themselves, can be managing resources.

  • Patent number: 8676847
    Abstract: Organization and assignment of access privileges to resources in a computer network. The resources of the network are organized into a hierarchical tree structure, with each node in the tree representing a resource, resource group, or resource instance. Read and/or write permission to one or more resources may be explicitly granted to the resource or implicitly granted based upon the location of the resource in the hierarchical structure. The access rights attach to the resource(s). Upon movement of the resource within the tree structure or to an alternate tree structure, the access rights associated therewith remain with the relocated resource.
