A server system determines an adoption state for a first software-development product of a plurality of software-development products offered to software developers by a provider associated with the server system. The adoption state indicates an extent to which the first product has been implemented by a software developer for use in connection with a first application. In accordance with the determined adoption state for the first product, the server system performs at least one of: providing a reminder to the software developer to implement the first product in connection with the first application; and providing a notification of availability of a second product of the plurality of products in connection with the first application.

An online system regulates access to information about a user by associating an online system user identifier with a unique application-specific user identifier used by an application to identify the user. Each application communicating with the online system and installed by the user is associated with a unique application-specific user identifier that is associated with the user's online system user identifier. For example, information identifying an installed application and an application-specific user identifier are associated with the user's online system user identifier when the user installs the application. When communicating about a user with an installed application associated with the user, the online system identifies the user via the application-specific identifier associated with the installed application and may provide limited information associated with the online system user identifier associated with the application-specific identifier.

Managing access to user information by applications operating in an online system environment

An online system enables developers of third-party applications to specify online system users to receive advertisements. The online system generates and sends a user-specific identifier for online system users that use a third-party application when an advertiser associated with the third-party application requests a user-specific identifier from the online system. For example, the online system retrieves user identifying information associated with a client device identifier provided by an advertiser and generates a user identifier by encrypting the retrieved user identifying information. The advertiser may include one or more user-specific identifiers in an advertisement request sent to an online system to present an advertisement in the advertisement request to online system users corresponding to the user-specific identifiers. The online system determines whether to present the advertisement to users based in part on whether users correspond to user-specific identifiers included in the advertisement request.

Targeting advertisements to customized groups of users of an online system

Techniques to manage platform migrations are described. In one embodiment, for example, an apparatus may comprise an interface component, a bundle component, and an execution component. The interface component may be operative to receive a command from a client, the command comprising a bundle identifier for the client. The bundle component may be operative to determine a bundle of platform migrations associated with the client based on the bundle identifier. The execution component may be operative to execute the command on behalf of the client based on the bundle of platform migrations. Other embodiments are described and claimed.
