Abstract: An information exchange platform referred to as a Trading Grid (TG) may perform relationship-based data processing utilizing a trading partner (TP) graph that describes relationships amongst operating units (OUs) on the TG. When the TG receives a request from an OU to exchange data with a TP, the TG accesses the TP graph and determines a relationship between the OU and their TP as reflected in the TP graph. The TP graph is maintained and controlled by the system independently of the OU and the TP. The TG may route the data based on instructions associated with the relationship that is reflected in the TP graph. The instructions associated with the relationship may specify network based services provided by the TG. An orchestration component may operate to orchestrate the performance of the network based services. The TG then communicates the processed and/or produced data to the TP.

Abstract: A technical solution for an electronic information exchange platform is disclosed. Services provided by the platform may be described in a uniform way via service-specific provisioning descriptors. To provision services for a client system, a managed services provisioning system provides a service configuration interface through which a service associated with a tuple of a particular sender, receiver, and document type can be selected for further configuration. A service provisioning interface is dynamically generated for obtaining service-specific provisioning information from a user for generating a service-specific provisioning data instance that can be deployed to a backend system. At runtime, the backend system utilizes the service-specific provisioning data instance to provide the provisioned service for a client system. In this way, a variety of services can be efficiently provisioned for a diverse set of clients in a scalable, streamlined, and cost-effective manner.

Abstract: An intelligent and versatile information exchange platform provides a delivery service operable to perform, in a network environment, processing a document in a first process context according to a first itinerary associated with a sender, including determining whether any receiver policy rule is applicable to the document. If so, the delivery service can determine a second itinerary in view of the receiver policy rule and automatically transition to act as a receive service for the receiver such that the document is processed is a second process context according to the second itinerary associated with the receiver. When no receiver policy rule is found or applicable to the document based on the document type of the document, the delivery service can deliver the document to the receiver under the first process context.
