Abstract: A system and a method for executing a web-based application on a client computer system without a network connection to an application server that hosts the web-based application is presented. In these embodiments, the web-based application can provide functionality substantially similar to the functionality of the web-based application when the client computer system has a network connection to the application server. A system and method for synchronizing and resolving conflicts between an online and an offline web-based application is also presented.

Abstract: A computer system includes one or more memory, and one or more programs and data structures stored in the memory, the one or more programs and data structures including: an application data structure processors, configured to store data and program files for a web-based application, an account data structure configured to store one or more instances of the application data structure for an account, wherein an instance of the application data structure corresponds to an instance of a web based application, and a synchronization module configured to synchronize data between web-based applications within an account based on synchronization rules.

Abstract: In an embodiment, a computer implemented method is described. The method is performed at one or more servers, hosting a marketplace application. A software application is received from a vendor for distribution. License terms are generated in response to a selection by the vendor from options provided by the marketplace application. The license terms are associated with the software application. The software application is made available for distribution through the marketplace application, in accordance with the license terms.

Abstract: Changes made to a first data set in a plurality of data sets are detected, and at least a first subset of the changes is synchronized to a data framework that facilitates data synchronization between the plurality of data sets.
