Abstract: Disclosed are hybrid authentication systems and methods that enable users to seamlessly sign-on between cloud-based services and on-premises systems. A cloud-based authentication service receives login credentials from a user and delegates authentication to an on-premises authentication service proxy. The login credentials can be passed by the cloud-based authentication service to the on-premises authentication service proxy, for instance, as an access token in an authentication header. The access token can be a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) Web Token (JWT) token that is digitally signed using JSON Web Signature. Some embodiments utilize a tunnel connection through which the cloud-based authentication service communicates with the on-premises authentication service proxy. Some embodiments leverage an on-premises identity management system for user management and authentication.

Abstract: A system having an off-premises proxy server residing in a cloud computing environment and backend servers residing in an enterprise computing environment are provided. Requests received by the off-premises proxy server for access to a first, non-publicly accessible backend server are routed to a tunnel server which stores the request and waits to be polled by a tunnel agent connected to the first backend server. When the tunnel server is polled, the request is forwarded through an HTTP tunnel to the tunnel agent, which forwards it to the backend server for processing. Responsive information is returned to the tunnel agent, which forwards it through the HTTP tunnel to the tunnel server and returned through the off-premises proxy server to the remote application. Requests for access to a first, publicly accessible backend server are routed by the off-premises proxy server directly to the backend server for processing and return of responsive information.

Abstract: Controlling access to business process data is disclosed. An instance of a first business process object configured to contain business process data of a business process is created. An instance of a second business process object configured to contain business process data of the business process is created. A first access control list is associated with the instance of the first business process object and a second access control list is associated with the instance of the second business process object.

Abstract: A system in which an event manager executes a multitenant computing platform. The event manager obtains a first domain-specific event indicating a user request to perform operations associated with a particular tenant's domain object. Information for the domain object associated with the domain-specific event is retrieved from a tenant database, the information including a domain object definition and instructions defining its behaviors. A protected event execution environment (sandbox) is generated on the multitenant computing platform implementing restrictions on execution of the domain object's behavior instructions. The restrictions are specific to the combination of the user and the domain object. Execution of the instructions is initiated in the protected event execution environment.

Abstract: A database system that incorporates numerous features that reduce the total cost of maintaining the database system is provided. That database system includes a database appliance that executes a database server on a platform that includes a special purpose operating system specifically tailored to the services required by the database server. The database appliance configures itself by detecting the environment in which it resides and setting operational parameters based on the detected environment. The configuration metadata of all components of the system are stored in a centralized repository which itself may reside external to the system. Both the database server configuration and the operating system configuration are managed by a remotely located integrated management console, which interacts with and configures the system at the database system level, the operating system level and, optionally, at the hardware subsystem level. Backup management may also be performed remotely.
