Abstract: A device, method and article of manufacture related to a mechanism for cross profile intent resolution is disclosed. An example method includes, in response to detecting a first user input associated with a first user profile stored on the computing device, generating a first intent that corresponds to the first user input, applying a sequence of cross profile intent filters to traverse a user profile hierarchy from the first user profile to a second user profile stored on the computing device, wherein the traversal of the user profile hierarchy is based on a successful resolution of each cross profile intent filter of the sequence of cross profile intent filters, identifying an application associated with the second user profile and configured to satisfy the first intent, and providing functionality from the application to satisfy the first intent via the first user profile.

Abstract: A computer-implemented method for performing data integration, the method comprising establishing a connection between a first application and a first remote database, wherein the connection is established using a connection file containing metadata required to establish the connection, requesting, by the first application, data from the first remote database that stores the data in a first format, wherein the metadata is used to determine whether the first application is authorized to access the data in the first remote database, importing the data in the first format from the first remote database, converting, by the first application, the data in the first format to data in a native format that is specific to the first application, and providing the data in the native format to a user of the first application.
