Patent number: 11914727Abstract: The disclosed technology addresses the need in the art for a content management system that can be highly flexible to the needs of its subjects. The present technology permits any object to be shared by providing a robust and flexible access control list mechanism. The present technology utilizes a data structure that is highly efficient that both minimizes the amount of information that needs to be written into any database, but also allows for fast reads and writes of information from authoritative tables that are a source of truth for the content management system, while allowing for maintenance of indexes containing more refined data that allow for efficient retrieval of certain information that would normally need to be calculated when it is needed.Type: GrantFiled: December 21, 2020Date of Patent: February 27, 2024Assignee: Dropbox, Inc.Inventors: Aaron Passey, Braden Walker, Akos Albert
