Abstract: A multi-tenant hosting system receives business data and tenant-identifying data, from a tenant. The data from multiple different tenants is stored on a single database, but the data corresponding to each tenant is partitioned by marketing the data with a partition identifier, within the database. Therefore, the hosting system only allows individual tenants to have access to their own data.

Abstract: A search system, separate from a relational database, generates an index of information in the relational database that can be used to look up business records (or entities). A search system, that is also separate from the relational database, receives typing or other character inputs in a search user input mechanism and generates queries against the index based on the typing inputs, or other character inputs, received. The search system returns results and modifies those results as additional typing inputs, or characters, are received.

Abstract: Application program interfaces (APIs), schemas and procedures manage multiple sessions within a server system has a create session request call for establishing a session between a client and a server within the server system. Each of plurality of sessions among the servers is persisted within a database operatively coupled to the servers. Each session is associated with a unique session identification which uniquely identifies the session among the plurality of sessions. A management request call for managing one of the sessions is performed according to the unique session identification.

Abstract: A method and system for maintaining date and time information correctly across rule changes for time zones is provided. A time maintenance system provides rules for converting dates and times between various time zones and a common time zone. When the time maintenance system receives a date and time in a designated time zone, it converts the date and time to a date and time in the common time zone based on a provided rule. The time maintenance system then stores the converted date and time along with an identification of the rule used to convert the date and time to the common time zone. The time maintenance system may then receive an indication of an overriding rule that overrides an existing rule for converting a date and time between the designated time zone and the current time zone. The time maintenance system then updates the stored date and time when the rule has been overridden in such a way as to indicate that the original date and time is no longer correct and to indicate the new rule.

Abstract: A database application may receive a database query to retrieve a relation with date effective information stored by a relational database, and send a database result having the date effective information. The database application may comprise a data mapping component to retrieve a relation definition for the relation from metadata associated with the relation, the relation definition having a relation variable with a set of attributes including multiple date effective attributes, the relation definition having a definition for an alternate key formed from a composite of a date effective attribute and one other attribute from the set of attributes, and a data access component to generate the relation with the date effective information using the alternate key, the relation having a set of one or more tuples, with each tuple having one or more attribute values for corresponding date effective attributes of the relation. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
