Abstract: Providing subscriber options can include receiving a message including a selected service design option from a subscriber device, identifying the subscriber based on the message, fetching data pertinent to the selected service design option and the identified subscriber, and providing a set of service design options, dependent to the selected service design option, to the subscriber device based on the data.

Abstract: A system includes a cloud computing system. The cloud computing system includes a continuous delivery system to enable design and deployment of a cloud service in the cloud computing system. The cloud computing system also includes a cloud services system to enable access and consumption of a service offering associated with the cloud service by a user. The cloud computer system further includes a cloud service management system that is executed on a non-transitory computer readable medium. The cloud service management system can integrate the continuous delivery system and the cloud services system over the cloud computing system to provide the design and the deployment of the cloud service and publication of the cloud service to the cloud services system.

Abstract: Designing a cloud based service from a component palette can include providing a designer with a component palette. The component palette can include a plurality of component types each including an identification of the component type, a property defining the component type, and a relationship rule defining a relationship with another component type. The component palette can include a component template corresponding to a component type, comprising a specialized variant of the component type, wherein the component template inherits the property and the relationship rule of the component type. Designing can include receiving a request for a new component type from the designer, receiving an indication of one component type from which to derive the new component type, and deriving the new component type from the indicated one component type inheriting the property and the relationship rule from the indicated one of the plurality of component types.

Abstract: Key retrieval can include accessing a password for a keystore from a source. Key retrieval can include placing the password in memory. Key retrieval can include deleting the password from the source. Key retrieval can include retrieving an encryption key from the keystore with the password in memory.

Abstract: A method, executed on a computing device, and a corresponding system, allow software applications to easily access data contained in a static XML document by parsing the static XML document. For each node in the XML document, a Node Offset value is determined. The Node Offset value is then stored and serves as an index offset value, where the index offset value is used by the software applications to retrieve the data contained in the static XML document.
