Described herein is a system and method of processing data of a digital twins object model. Data associated with a node of the digital twins object model is parsed to identify metadata associated with the node. The data can comprise telemetry data received from an IoT device associated with the node. User-defined function(s) are determined that match the identified metadata. The data and metadata can be provided to the user-defined function(s). The determined user-defined function(s) are executed. Also described herein is a method of creating a user-defined function for processing data of a digital twins object model. Information regarding business logic is received from a user defining a user-defined function. Information regarding telemetry condition(s) to which the user-defined function applies is received defining a matcher. The user-defined function and matcher are stored as objects within a spatial intelligence graph associated with the digital twins object model.

Individualized telemetry processing leveraging digital twins property(ies) and topological metadata

Isolating resources between sub-entities. A method includes receiving data from a particular connected device. A memory storing a hierarchical graph that defines a topology for an entity is accessed. Branches or leaves in the graph include a node that represents a connected device, such as a sensor, controller, or computing system. Each connected device is configured to provide data or receive control signals. Each of the branches or leaves can be indicated as belonging to a particular sub-entity. A particular branch from the hierarchical graph having the particular connected device is identified using the graph. A sub-entity to which the particular branch belongs is identified. The method identifies that the particular sub-entity should be isolated from other sub entities. The data from the particular connected device is provided to a set of resources specifically allocated for the particular sub-entity.

Nested tenants

For applications that are designed to operate across multiple computer environments, an application distribution service may store multiple different versions of application packages, the different versions being applicable to different computing environments. Application targeted metadata associated with the application packages may be utilized to quickly diagnose the applicability of the application packages to a client device with low bandwidth cost, and before any package distribution is commenced.

Deployment meta-data based applicability targetting

Registration of an application in a per-user registration model includes the creation and storage of duplicate registration data for multiple user accounts present on a system. This duplication of registration data may be reduced by storing at least a portion of identical data in a per-machine location in the system memory where it is accessible to all user accounts. Instead of needing to separately re-compute and/or re-store duplicate registration data in multiple per-user locations in the memory, each user account may access and utilize the registration data stored in the per-machine location. Pre-computing and storing a portion of the application registration data in a per-machine location in the memory may also allow the system to defer the registration of the application.
