Abstract: An interface, through which functionality of a cloud computing infrastructure can be accessed, can create defined endpoints through which such an interface is accessed, with such defined endpoints limiting the functionality accessible through the interface to only allowed functions. An elevate function can, through a secure key exchange protocol, receive appropriate assurances and can, in response, remove the functionality limitations of the endpoint, thereby enabling unfettered access to the cloud computing infrastructure. Such unrestricted access can be limited in duration, which duration can be established in advance, or agreed-upon through the key exchange mechanism.

Abstract: Processing a delayed printer assignment to a physical printer through an off-premise communications network relative to the physical printer is provided. A list of one or more held print jobs associated with a secure user identity of a user is retrieved from a cloud-based print service through the off-premise communications network. Each held print job is cached in the cloud-based print service. Rendering of the held print job is assigned to the physical printer using a secure physical printer identifier of the physical printer, responsive to the retrieving. The held print job is rendered at the physical printer identified by the physical printer identifier, responsive to the assigning.

Abstract: Described are systems and methods for implementing auto-generation of provider functionality. An approach is discussed regarding exposing a management surface of an application by using a system of informational tagging on existing code in the application. The informational tagging can include a set of classification techniques using attribution.

Abstract: Techniques described herein are directed toward side-by-side handling of providers on a 64-bit system. The request for loading a particular version of the provider may include a provider architecture flag that specifies a 32-bit or 64-bit version of a provider for managing the requested service. The request may also include a required architecture flag specifying that the given instantiation of the provider is required and to be forced. The platform manager loads a particular provider instantiation as a function of the provider architecture flag and the required architecture flag.
