Abstract: A content server can function as the master record keeper even if a file or folder that it manages in an enterprise computing environment is shared externally, for instance, through a cloud system. To mitigate network security risks, the content server polls, from behind a firewall, an event service of the cloud system. The event service, in response, can communicate events indicating changes to the shared content to the content server. The content server can interpret the events and determine whether to take any appropriate action, for example, updating an audit log to include an event and/or updating the managed content to reflect the changes. Likewise, the content server can communicate any change to the managed content to the cloud system through the event service. In this way, the managed content in the enterprise computing environment and the shared content in the cloud system are bidirectionally synced.

Abstract: A client computer includes a synchronization manager. The synchronization manager communicates with a remote content management system to determine a set of objects in a content navigation hierarchy. The synchronization manager provides a user interface with controls to allow a user to independently select multiple objects in the content navigation hierarchy for synchronization and receives an input, via the interface, that selects objects from the set of objects for synchronization. The synchronization manager stores local peers of the selected objects in a local cache in a local file system. The synchronization manager synchronizes changes to the selected objects at the content management system to the local peers in the file system.

Abstract: One embodiment of a system comprises a client device and a remote content management system. The client device comprises a synchronization manager that maintains a remote virtual model that models a synchronization state of a remote peer resource at the content management system and a local virtual model that models a synchronization state of a local peer resource in the local file system. The synchronization manager determines that the remote peer resource and local peer resource are out of sync based on a comparison of the remote virtual model and the local virtual model and synchronizes changes from the local cache to the content management system to update the remote peer resource or synchronizes changes from the content management system to update the local peer resource.

Abstract: One embodiment of a system comprises a client computer and a remote content management system.
