Abstract: Described is a technology by which private content maintained behind a firewall (e.g., in a “mesh”) may be searched, browsed, and accessed via an index that exists outside of the firewall. Searching of the index may include checking permissions of a user against permissions associated with metadata in the index, e.g., per watch folder into which file content is added. When content is selected, e.g., by clicking on a search result, a request is made. An application polls for such requests, and when detected, pushes a copy of the content through the firewall to the requester. The search may be performed over more than one index, with aggregated search results returned.

Abstract: A send client can send a message or multiple segments of a message to a receive client via a computer network. A data exchange server can receive the message and store the message in a storage device. If the send client sent the message in multiple segments, the data exchange server can store the message segments in the storage device once it receives all the message segments. The data exchange server can send the message in multiple segments to a receive client. The data exchange server can send a send receipt to the send client upon sending the message to a next destination. The data exchange server can send a receive receipt to the send client upon receiving the message. The data exchange server can send messages of an ordered set in the order in which they are received from a send client.
