Abstract: Aspects described herein may relate to a transaction exchange platform using a streaming data platform (SDP) and microservices to process transactions in accordance with corresponding workflows. The transaction exchange platform may generate configuration transaction objects to reconfigure microservices with salt values and time periods of salt value validity. Further, the microservices may retrieve transaction objects from a streaming data platform and generate hash signatures as part of determining the validity of the transaction objects. Furthermore, in some aspects the microservices may retrieve salt values for transaction objects that cannot be verified due to the absence of a hash signature. The salt values may be retrieved from a blockchain associated with the streaming data platform and may be used to update the microservice to include the salt value.

Abstract: In certain instances, a data management application (software application) that manages moving data files, and the like, from a primary high-speed storage system. An end-user can configure the data management application for particular files via management policies. Based on the management policies, after a file is migrated from the primary storage system to a targeted secondary storage system, a breadcrumb pointing to a webpage for the migrated file is left behind in the primary storage system. The webpage can be used to manage the migrated file, such as moving the migrated file back to the primary storage system.
