Abstract:

A method includes receiving, at a first computing device, a request to retrieve a localized instance of a data object. The request is received from a second computing device and includes an object name. A locale applicable to the request is identified, and the localized instance of the data object is retrieved based on the object name and the identified locale. The localized instance includes a plurality of data elements specific to the identified locale. The method includes transmitting the localized instance to the second computing device.

US Classification:

707770, 707812, 707E17014, 707E17044

Abstract:

A first version of object data for an object instance can be stored in an object persistence store, which can be a distributed store. After the first version of the object data is stored, a second version of the object data can be stored in the store, without deleting the first version of the object data. Object data versioning information that identifies the first version of the object data and the second version of the object data can be stored separately from method versioning information for the object instance. After the second version of the object data is stored, a request to retrieve the first version of the object instance can be received, and in response, the first version of the object data can be retrieved from the store. Multiple versions of the object instance data can also be searched.

Abstract:

The application to a security model to one or more objects that are located on a network. When an object is to be accessed, security data associated with the object is accessed and enforced against the object. For instance, the security data might be used to determine an authentication mechanism to use to authenticate the user or entity that is accessing the object. The security data might also correlated the authenticated user or entity to the authorized actions that may be performed by that entity on the object. The security data might also specify encryption policy regarding the object.
