  • Patent number: 9477695
    Abstract: A request for a metadata object is received where the request includes an identifier. It is determined whether the metadata object is stored in a metadata cache, including by: selecting a sub-cache in the metadata cache based at least in part on the identifier and determining whether the metadata object is stored in that sub-cache. If it is determined the metadata object is not in the metadata cache, a request (in a format associated with the source) to obtain the metadata object is sent to a source with which the metadata object is associated. If the metadata object provided by the source is in a native format which is not the same as the common format, the metadata object is transformed from the native format into the common format. Access to the metadata object in the common format is provided.

    Abstract: A request for a metadata object is received. It is determined whether the metadata object is stored in a metadata cache. In the event the metadata object is not stored in the metadata cache, a request to obtain the metadata object is sent to a source with which the metadata object is associated in a format associated with the source. The metadata object is transformed from a native format of the source into a common format if the metadata object as provided by the source is in a native format that is not the same as the common format. Access to the metadata object in the common format is provided.
