Abstract: A multi-tenant system processes tenant data stored in storage systems of the multi-tenant system as well as external data sources. The multi-tenant system creates objects including objects based on tenant data stored in the storage system of the multi-tenant system and objects based on data stored in the external data sources. The multi-tenant system provides access to the objects to an external system distinct from the multi-tenant system. The multi-tenant system receives requests to perform operations on objects from the external system. An operation performed on an object based on data stored in external data source results in one or more of accessing data required for the operation from the external data source or storing data modified by the operation in the external data source.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method of providing targeted content to a user includes generating a query index from a data corpus, the query index including a plurality of market segment-based queries, wherein each market segment-based query of the plurality of queries is configured to provide targeted content on a browser user interface of a user determined to be within a corresponding market segment.

Abstract: Techniques are described herein for storing instances of data among nodes of a distributed store based on hierarchical scale unit values. Hierarchical scale unit values are assigned to the respective nodes of the distributed store. A first instance (e.g., a primary instance) of a data module is stored in a first node having a first hierarchical scale unit value. A primary instance of the data module with respect to a data operation is an instance of the data module at which the data operation with respect to the data module is initiated or initially directed. A second instance (e.g., a primary or secondary instance) of the data module is stored in a second node having a second hierarchical scale unit value based on a magnitude of a difference between the first hierarchical scale unit value and the second hierarchical scale unit value. A secondary instance is essentially a “back-up” instance.

Abstract: A flexible and extensible architecture allows for secure searching across an enterprise. Such an architecture can provide a simple Internet-like search experience to users searching secure content inside (and outside) the enterprise. The architecture allows for the crawling and searching of a variety of sources across an enterprise, regardless of whether any of these sources conform to a conventional user role model. The architecture further allows for security attributes to be received at query time, for example, in order to provide real-time secure access to enterprise resources. The user query also can be transformed to provide for dynamic querying that provides for a more current result list than can be obtained for static queries.

Abstract: A method and apparatus for managing hierarchical relationships in a relational database system is provided. An “orderkey” data type, which is native within a relational database system, is disclosed. The orderkey type is designed to contain values that represent the position of an entity relative to the positions of other entities within a hierarchy. Such values represent hierarchical relationships between those entities. Values that are of the orderkey type have properties that allow hierarchy-oriented functions to be performed in an especially efficient manner. Database functions, which operate on and/or produce values that are of the orderkey type, are also disclosed. Such functions can be placed within SQL statements that a database server executes, for example. In response to executing SQL statements that contain such functions, the database server performs hierarchy-oriented operations in a highly efficient manner.

Abstract: Systems and methods that aggregate memory capacity of multiple computers into a single unified cache, via a layering arrangement. Such layering arrangement is scalable to a plurality of machines and includes a data manager component, an object manager component and a distributed object manager component, which can be implemented in a modular fashion. Moreover, the layering arrangement can provide for an explicit cache tier (e.g., cache-aside architecture) that applications are aware about, wherein decision are made explicitly which objects to put/remove in such applications (as opposed to an implicit cache wherein application do not know the existence of the cache).

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate migrating message for a messaging service. In aspects, a determination is made that messages need to be migrated based on a threshold being crossed. In response, an agent is instructed to migrate data associated with the messages to another location. The agent uses various factors to determine one or more queues to migrate. While a queue is being migrated, during a first portion of the migration, messages may be added to and removed from the queue as senders send new messages and receivers consume messages. During a second portion of the migration, the queue is frozen to disallow the queue to be used for receiving new messages and delivering queued messages. The migration may be orchestrated to attempt to achieve certain goals.

Abstract: A messaging entity configured in a memory of first node of a plurality communicatively coupled nodes is disclosed. The nodes are included in a distributed computing system. The messaging entity is configured to operate as a secondary messaging entity in a messaging server for the plurality communicatively coupled nodes. The messaging entity is communicatively couple to a primary messaging entity configured in a memory of a second node of the plurality of nodes. The primary messaging entity is configured to store a message; store a copy of the message.

Abstract: A database server that manages a database retrieves metadata that is stored, within the database, in association with a procedure that is stored in the database. Based on the metadata, a Web service definition is automatically constructed to describe the procedure as a Web service. The WSDL definition can be referenced to construct SOAP messages with the appropriate arguments and in the appropriate format which, when received, are converted to a suitable format for invoking execution of the procedure by the database server.
