Abstract: A method of provisioning a Web hosting resource includes providing a cloud service. A request for a Web hosting resource is received by the cloud service, wherein the request is provided by a client. The cloud service identifies a Web host based on the received request for a Web hosting resource. The cloud service sends a request to the Web host to provision a first Web hosting resource for use by the client.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to recommending data sources. In aspects, a request to provide recommendations of data enrichments for a database is received at a recommendation engine. The recommendation engine may perform static and dynamic analysis of data associated with the database and may further refine recommendations based on policies. The recommendation engine may then provide the recommendations, if any, of data enrichments to allow a software developer, for example, to indicate whether the data enrichments are to be used.

Abstract: An element in a fetched file (a file received from the web server in response to an HTTP request) can be mapped to the source code that generated it and vice versa. When code is compiled at the web server, calls can be executed that emit HTML that includes metadata that maps a snippet of code back to a particular source file and to a particular location in the source file. The HTML can include injected symbols that specify that the information from a particular start position for a particular character length in the HTML comes from a particular start position to a particular end position in the source file.

Abstract: A selection in a browser can be mapped back to a corresponding location range in one or more source files that generated the selection. A selection in a source file can be mapped to the corresponding location range in the browser's DOM. The selection in the browser can be mapped to a location range in a block list generated from the DOM. The location range in the DOM's block list can be mapped to a corresponding location range in a block list generated from the fetched file received from a web server. The location range in the fetched file's block list can be mapped to a particular location in the particular source file responsible for generating the selection in the browser. The selection in the browser and the source file can be displayed concurrently, the source file scrolled to the location range corresponding to the selection in the browser.

Abstract: A selection in a browser in an integrated development environment can be mapped back to the original document that was fetched from a web server by uniquely identifying elements in the original document. A DOM can be created from the original document where the DOM retains the unique identifiers associated with the elements. Block lists for the original document and the DOM can be created. A differencing algorithm can be run on the two block lists. A selection in a browser can be mapped to a location in the DOM block list and the location in the DOM block list can be mapped to the original document.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to integrated database deployment. In aspects, code corresponding to a software project and data that encodes database operations are placed in a deployment package. When executed in a first environment such as a development environment, the code is arranged to access a first database of the first environment. The database operations indicated in the package may be used to create and/or update a second database of a target entity such that the second database is consistent for use by the code after the code is installed on the target entity.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to publishing applications from a source environment to a target environment. In aspects, a publishing pipeline has multiple segments in which work related to the publishing is performed. In the pipeline, file data associated with an application is collected. Settings that need to be created and/or changed in target environment are also determined. Transformation actions may also occur to determine and prepare files to be published to the target environment. After the files and settings to publish are determined and the transformation actions occur, the application may then be published to the target environment.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to transforming documents. In aspects, a transformer obtains a source document and a transformation document. The transformation document indicates changes to make to the source document to transform the source document. The transformation document also includes location information that indicates where the changes are to be made. The transforms indicated by the transformation document may be extensible. Using the source document and the transformation document, the transformer transforms the source document into a target document. The transformer may be part of a development environment used to develop applications.

Abstract: Aspects of the subject matter described herein relate to a secure virtual environment for providing tests to test takers. In aspects, a testing environment is set up that includes one or more virtual machines. A view to the virtual machines is provided to a test taking station on which a test taker may interact with and configure the virtual machines. The virtual machines in the testing environment are allowed to communicate with each other but are not allowed access to resources outside of the testing environment. After the test taker indicates that the test taker is done with the test, data related to the test is collected from the virtual machines. This data may then be used to score the test taker.
