Abstract: Metadata is replicated. For instance, in response to receiving a request for replicating metadata to a target node, information of an index structure associated with the metadata is obtained. The index structure may include terminal nodes for storing the metadata and index nodes for storing index information of the terminal nodes. Next, the metadata from the terminal nodes is extracted based on the information of the index structure. Further, a sequence is generated to be replicated of the metadata. The sequence to be replicated includes items of the metadata, and locations of the items in the sequence to be replicated are determined based on key information corresponding to the items. In addition, the items of the metadata, in the sequence to be replicated, are replicated to the target node. In this way, only the metadata in the index structure is replicated, thereby reducing the data amount of replication.

Abstract: A collaborative content management system receives, from a client device having access to an account associated with the collaborative content management system, a request for versions of a collaborative document managed by the collaborative content management system. The collaborative content management system accesses a set of versions of the collaborative document. The set of versions includes at least one offline version. The at least one offline version was created on a client device having access to the collaborative document while the client device was disconnected from the collaborative content management system and synchronized to the collaborative content management system when the client device is connected to the collaborative content management system. The collaborative content management system generates a user interface providing the set of versions.

Abstract: In embodiments, a context object is created when a write operation is initiated. The client application or user performs a write operation to a table and receives a context object which has information on all the tablets that are impacted by writes by the client application. In embodiments, the context object may contain a list describing what key ranges the client application has updated. As such, only that small portion of what has been touched needs to be looked for and this typically only includes a small subset of tablets compared to all the tablets associated with that table. This leads to a small verification cost when checking only impacted tablets in the cluster. The only portion of the table in the database that needs to be verified is the one or more portions that were updated and nothing else.

For example, a method may include, responsive to a detection of a failed storage device in a P2P storage system, determining, by the failed storage device, that a storage-centric task is assigned to the failed storage device; and performing, by the failed storage device, the storage-centric task responsive to P2P communications with a functioning storage device in the P2P storage system.

Abstract: Pieces of an entity's data set can be related with each other using a canonical Uniform Resource Locator (URL). If a server returns pieces of an entity's data record to a client within multiple separate REST-based responses, the client can discern from the canonical URL that those pieces relate to the same entity. In response to each REST-based request from a client, a server returns, with the client-requested data, a canonical URL that uniquely identifies that data's entity. A client can receive the canonical URL with the data that the server returns. If the canonical URLs returned along with data items in separate requests match, then the client determines that those data items pertain to the same entity. If the client determines that separately received data items pertain to the same entity, then the client can merge those data items together into a unified record that the client stores locally.

Abstract: The operation of a machine can be controlled by performing reconciliation using a cluster of nodes. In one example, a node can receive parent timestamped data from a parent dataset and child timestamped data from child datasets that are children of the parent dataset in a hierarchical relationship. The parent timestamped data and the child timestamped data can relate to an operational characteristic of the machine. The node can generate computer processing-threads. Each computer processing-thread can solve one or more respective reconciliation problems between a parent data point that has a particular timestamp in the parent timestamped data and child data points that also have the particular timestamp in the child timestamp data to generate a reconciled dataset. An operational setting of the machine can then be adjusted based on the reconciled dataset.
