  • Patent number: 11803893
    Abstract: A service provider system may implement an enterprise catalog service that manages software products and portfolios of software products on behalf of service provider customer organizations. A graph processing service of the enterprise catalog service may create a graph representation of the enterprise catalog service data, including principals, product listings, portfolios, and constraints (and the relationships between them) that may be used to manage access control, launch contexts, and searches within the enterprise catalog service. A primary (key-value) store may maintain an adjacency list and a secondary index of de-normalized edges. A secondary (document) store may maintain the de-normalized edges. In response to various queries directed to the graph processing service, the service may query the adjacency list or the secondary index. For example, one query may return a list of products that an end user can access, and another may return a count of products within a portfolio.

  • Patent number: 11244261
    Abstract: A service provider system may implement an enterprise catalog service that manages catalogs or portfolios of software products (e.g., desktop applications and server products) on behalf of service provider customer organizations. Through the enterprise catalog service, an administrator in a customer organization may discover, select, and ingest products (e.g., based on their features, pricing, and terms), and may add them to catalogs or portfolios for subsequent use by end users in the organization. The administrator may apply constraints on product use and limit product access to particular end users. The products may include third party products that are made available through the enterprise catalog service and a customer's own applications. The enterprise catalog service may monitor usage of third party products and bill the customer organization. Products managed by the enterprise catalog service may be deployed through an application fulfillment platform or resource stack management platform.

  • Publication number: 20200184394
    Abstract: A service provider system may implement an enterprise catalog service that manages software products and portfolios of software products on behalf of service provider customer organizations. Through an administrator interface of the service, a customer organization administrator may create constraints on the use of the software products, and each constraint may include one or more rules about how the products can be launched. These may include environmental constraints (specifying a region in which a product launches), restrictions on input parameter values (including the types of resource instances on which a product can be launched), quotas (controlling the number of product installations), or billing constraints. Constraints may be applied on a user-to-product arc or on a portfolio-to-product arc. Constraints may be stored as objects, and reference to those objects may be added to product or portfolio objects.

  • Patent number: 10572842
    Abstract: A service provider system may implement a notification service that manages actionable notification messages received from other services on behalf of a customer organization and its end users. An IT administrator of the customer organization may create and configure message inboxes to be maintained by the notification service. The messages stored in each inbox may be partitioned by source, type, targeted (authorized) recipients, or an associated message topic. Each message may include an identifier of the inbox to which it is directed, and active elements that, when selected by a recipient, cause a corresponding action to be performed. The service from which a message is received may, in response to a message recipient taking one of the available actions, submit a request to the notification service to update the message state. The notification service may provide APIs through which the other services and message recipients interact with the notification service.

  • Patent number: 10552796
    Abstract: A service provider system may implement an approval service that manages approval requests received from other services on behalf of a customer organization and its end users. An administrator in the organization may create approval templates that define voting strategies at multiple approval levels and associate them with particular requests (individually, or by product, portfolio, project, action, message topic, workflow, or request type). The administrator may create approval groups whose members are authorized to respond to particular requests. Each approval template (or approval level) may include a different voting strategy or be associated with a different approval group. The approval system may support pre-notification of subsequent approval levels, auto-escalation, or auto-expiration. The approval service may employ a notification service to manage actionable notification messages that include approval requests. Members of approval groups may retrieve requests and select from available actions (e.g.

  • Patent number: 10318265
    Abstract: Methods, systems, and computer-readable media for implementing template generation for deployable units are disclosed. An indication of a deployable unit is received by a catalog system. A deployment template is generated that represents one or more directives for deploying the deployable unit. The deployment template is generated based at least in part on analysis of the deployable unit by the catalog system. The deployable unit is deployed to one or more resources of a multi-tenant provider network. The deployable unit is deployed based at least on part on the directives of the deployment template.

  • Publication number: 20160132808
    Abstract: A service provider system may implement an enterprise catalog service that manages catalogs and portfolios of software products (e.g., desktop applications and server products) on behalf of service provider customer organizations. Through the service, a customer organization administrator may create a portfolio (e.g., a container) and configure the portfolio for subsequent use by end users in the organization, which may include adding products, users, permissions, and constraints on the usage of the products (individually or collectively) to the portfolio for all authorized end users or particular end users. Portfolios may be shared with other administrators by publishing them or through direct notification of sharing. A recipient of a shared portfolio may, after importing it, further restrict access to the portfolio or the use of the products therein, but cannot modify the portfolio itself. Changes made by a portfolio owner may be propagated to authorized users and to portfolio importers automatically.

  • Patent number: 7499047
    Abstract: A system and process for capturing and rendering ink is described. An ink canvas object may contain none, one, or more objects or elements and may specify the z-order of the objects or elements. The ink canvas object may host a variety of objects or elements and, therefore, provide ink functionality to the objects or elements, even though the objects or elements themselves may not have ink functionality. The ink canvas object is attached to an ink editor that has an associated modifiable ink editor behavior, whereby ink specific behaviors are collected in the ink edit behavior.
