Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention provide systems and methods for storing, accessing, and/or promoting previous versions of changed or overwritten content in a cloud computing or multitenant environment. According to various embodiments, the system may list all the versions, promote a version to be the current version of the node, delete a specific version of the node, and/or rename/move all the node versions. Metadata associated with file versioning may be stored in a dynamic table with concatenated identifiers as a hash key and a content version as another hash key. Accordingly, the method may include securely storing a copy of an object handle instead of copying the entire content at a new location, which reduces storage and resource requirements, as well as improve on security and performance by efficient lookups in the table for read, writes, updates, and deletes for the given node version.
