Abstract: The innovation disclosed and claimed herein, in one aspect thereof, comprises systems and methods of funds transfer authentication. The authentication can include receiving a transfer request to transfer funds from a payer to a payee, the transfer request identifies the payer, the payee, and an amount to transfer. Customer information associated respectively with the payer and the payee is identified. The payer and the payee are authenticated. A communication session is opened between the payer and payee. A time-limited payee OTP is generated and sent to the payee. The payee OTP is received within a first time limit. The funds are transferred from the payer to the payee based on receiving a matching payee OTP.

Abstract: Methods and systems for synchronizing and consolidating information from multiple source systems within a metadirectory system. The metadirectory contains peers such as adapters and join engines which may communicate in a peer-to-peer fashion. Adapters are associated with source systems and broadcast data changes. Join engines have specifications for combining data types to generate other data types and may request data from adapters. Special communication channels may be dedicated to data types and/or to query responses to join engines. The system scales well both horizontally and vertically without a centralized server.
