Patent number: 11755780Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to installing and operating applications in a server-based application workspace. A computer system, while operating the server-based application workspace, may store subscription information indicating a user that is a developer for a particular application package, and one or more users that are subscribers for the particular application package. The computer system may further store lock data for the particular application package that indicates user permissions to edit at least one application component for the particular application package. Based on the lock data, the computer system may permit the developer to edit the at least one application component of the particular application package, and deny requests from the one or more users to edit the at least one application component.Type: GrantFiled: September 12, 2022Date of Patent: September 12, 2023Assignee: Salesforce, Inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Michael Bartolotta, Avrom Irwin Roy-Faderman, James B. Wunderlich, Dileep Burki

Patent number: 11403089Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to database techniques for storing metadata for web applications. In some embodiments, a server computer system may operate a platform for executing one or more application modules that utilize one or more application components to implement an application. The server computer system may generate a first set of values indicative of versions of a first set of application modules specified by an application package stored on the server computer system for implementing the application. The server computer system may determine a second set of values indicative of versions of a second set of application modules specified by an updated application package for an upgrade of the application. The server computer system disables application components associated with application modules specified in the first, but not the second, set of values.Type: GrantFiled: April 13, 2020Date of Patent: August 2, 2022Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Jeffrey Michael Bartolotta, James B. Wunderlich, Dileep Burki

Patent number: 10768926Abstract: Techniques are disclosed relating to database techniques for storing metadata for web applications. In some embodiments, manageable state information indicates whether certain entities (e.g., developers or subscribers) are allowed to edit particular fields (e.g., upon installing a version of an application package or when updating a package to a new version). In some embodiments, the manageable state information is stored separately from the corresponding metadata, which may avoid a need to query the metadata to determine manageable state and may allow validation of manageable state rules upon insertion of metadata into a new organization. In some embodiments, a short-lived build organization may facilitate validation of updates to web application packages.Type: GrantFiled: January 20, 2017Date of Patent: September 8, 2020Assignee: salesforce.com, inc.Inventors: Reid A. Elliott, Jeffrey M. Bartolotta, James B. Wunderlich, Peter Wisnovsky
