  • Publication number: 20160269480
    Abstract: Methods for event processing in a content management system. In response to determining that an inter-dependence exists between two or more events in the content management system, a same group event key is assigned to each inter-dependent event. All events having the same group event key are distributed to a same event processing node on a consistent hashing ring.

  • Publication number: 20140114865
    Abstract: A case creation event originating from an external content repository is detected by a processor executing an inbound event handler of a distributed integration framework that integrates a case management system with the external content repository. The case creation event is configured by the distributed integration framework to cause creation of a case within the case management system. The inbound event handler instructs the case management system to create the case within the case management system. An outbound event handler of the distributed integration framework instructs the external content repository to create a proxy case to remotely represent the case created within the case management system.

  • Publication number: 20140075454
    Abstract: Provided are a method, computer program product, and system for a dynamic subscription update for multiple queue event systems. A subscription request, including one or more conditions is received. A first subscription object, containing the one or more conditions in the subscription request, is selected from a first set of subscription objects. The first subscription object is moved to a second set of subscription objects. A second subscription object is generated based on the first subscription object. The second subscription object is updated with a generated subscription version and the subscription request. The second subscription object is added to the first set of subscription objects. In response to receiving the one or more conditions, a first event is generated using the second subscription object. The first event including the generated subscription version and the one of more conditions. The first event is added to a collection of first events.

  • Patent number: 7082455
    Abstract: A content management system is provided including a server computer and a client computer. The server includes a data repository and a stored procedure. The disclosed methodology provides a way of handling parameter passing of structured data for stored procedures in the system. The system is capable of both encoding data into a structured data format and decoding data from the structured data format. The structured data format employs a binary large object (BLOB) and character large object (CLOB) to achieve handling of fixed length binary data and variable length character data. Advantageously, the stored procedure interface need not be rewritten and customized for each stored procedure in the server.
