A method and apparatus for document collaboration and management are disclosed. In the method and apparatus, a document may be incorporated in a document directory maintained by a document collaboration and management service. A portable representation underlay based on the document may be generated using one or more asynchronous workflows and the portable representation underlay may be provided in response to a user request.

Document management and collaboration system

A method and apparatus for processing service requests for non-transactional databases are disclosed. In the method and apparatus, the execution of a first operation may be initiated based at least in part on receiving a service request from a user. The first operation may be executed synchronously with receipt of the request. Further, one or more execution workflows may be provisioned for asynchronous execution of one or more other operations.

Processing service requests for non-transactional databases

Various embodiments of a system and method for labor allocation across distinct processes of a materials handling facility are described. Embodiments may include a computer system configured to generate a model of a materials handling facility. The model may indicate, for each of multiple distinct quantities of work processed via a respective materials handling process, a quantity of labor resources processing that quantity of work in accordance with the respective materials handling process. The computer system may evaluate the model to determine that one or more additional labor resources are needed to process a particular quantity of work in accordance with a particular materials handling process. The computer system may select a labor resource processing a different quantity of work in accordance with a different materials handling process and generate an instruction that directs that labor resource to process the particular quantity of work via the particular materials handling process.

Organizations maintain and generate large amounts of documentation and entities of these organizations often need to collaborate on generating and reviewing this information. There is a need to maintain and store this documentation remotely in such a way that the entities of these organizations may collaborate with each other. A document management a collaboration system is provided to enable entities to collaborate with each other. Furthermore, developers may interface with the document management and collaboration system to provide add-in services and components to the document management and collaboration system. These add-in service and components may expand the capabilities of the documents and collaborations enabled by the document management and collaboration system.

Developer based document collaboration

Organizations maintain and generate large amounts of documentation and entities of these organizations often need to collaborate on generating and reviewing this information. There is a need to maintain and store this documentation remotely in such a way that the entities of these organizations may collaborate with each other. To ensure that information is handled effectively, new versions are created for documents uploaded to a service provider by entities of the organization. The documents are processed in such a way that the documents are displayed uniformly across a variety of devices.

Document version control in collaborative environment

A method and apparatus for controlling access to documents retained by a document management and collaboration system is disclosed. The document management and collaboration system may generate one or more suggested privileges associated with one or more users. An access control policy may specify whether system-generated user privileges may be enforced. If they are enforced, access to one or more document may be made subject to the generated privileges.

Access control for a document management and collaboration system

A method and apparatus for forming a collection of documents is disclosed. In the method and apparatus, a plurality of documents are identified for inclusion in a document collection. The documents are identified based at least in part on one or more attributes of at least one document of the plurality of documents. A user is requested to confirm the document collection, and an instruction is received from the user indicating one or more documents of the plurality of documents may be included in the document collection. After the indication is received, the collection may be formed and made available to the user or one or more other users of a document management and collaboration system.

A method of synchronizing shared folders and files within a remote and local file system includes determining a remote and local file system state. The remote file system state includes remote hash values for remote instances of shared folders, shared sub-folders, shared files, shared sub-level files, and shared shortcuts. The local file system state includes a local hash values for local instances of shared folders, shared sub-folders, shared files, shared sub-level files, and shared shortcuts. The method also includes comparing the remote file system state and the local file system state to determine any differences in the hash values within the remote file system state and the local file system state and synchronizing any shared folder, shared sub-folder, or shared file having a differing value in the remote file system state and the local file system state across the local file system and the remote file system.
