Abstract: A content publisher incorporates a script into a web page. The script consumes an event raised in response a user submitting a query. The script captures the query and related information and sends the captured query and information to a search provider, either directly or through the content publisher. The search provider uses the query and information to identify both the content publisher and branding information associated with the content publisher. An iframe is assembled by the search provider that contains current results from the content publisher as well as web results. The iframe is branded with the content publisher branding information and returned to the user, either directly or through the content publisher. The resultant search experience appears as if it were provided by the content publisher.

The rod is configured to rotate in a first direction to a first orientation to engage the cam with the arm to block rotation of the arm relative to the frame, and the rod is configured to rotate in a second direction, opposite the first direction, to a second orientation to disengage the cam from the arm to enable rotation of the arm relative to the frame.

Abstract: A service provider system may implement an enterprise catalog service that manages software products and portfolios of software products on behalf of service provider customer organizations. A graph processing service of the enterprise catalog service may create a graph representation of the enterprise catalog service data, including principals, product listings, portfolios, and constraints (and the relationships between them) that may be used to manage access control, launch contexts, and searches within the enterprise catalog service. A primary (key-value) store may maintain an adjacency list and a secondary index of de-normalized edges. A secondary (document) store may maintain the de-normalized edges. In response to various queries directed to the graph processing service, the service may query the adjacency list or the secondary index. For example, one query may return a list of products that an end user can access, and another may return a count of products within a portfolio.
