A data processing system for processing requests for features at a file collaboration platform implements receiving, at the file collaboration platform, a request from a client device to invoke a requested service on one or more files, wherein the requested service is associated with a feature provided by the file collaboration platform; determining a current operating status of the file collaboration platform; obtaining a feature-specific policy associated with the feature associated with the request; determining whether the requested service is allowed by the file collaboration platform based on the current operating status of the file collaboration platform and the feature-specific policy associated with the feature; allocating capacity to the request at the file collaboration platform for performing the request responsive to determining that the requested service is allowed; and sending a first message to the client device indicating that the client device may invoke the requested service.

Framework for allowing complementary workloads/processes to bring in heavy load on a file collaboration platform

A computing system includes a connection detection system that identifies a set of connected deliverables among a plurality of different deliverables in a data store and timeline generator logic that generates a representation of a timeline having nodes connected by edges, each node representing a deliverable and each edge connecting a pair of nodes corresponding to a connection between the deliverables represented by the pair of nodes connected by the edge. The computing system also includes a user interaction system that controls interaction with the plurality of different deliverables, the user interaction system comprising link setting logic that generates a link setting user interface mechanism that is actuatable to modify one or more connections and surfacing logic that controls a display to display the representation of the timeline and the link setting user interface mechanism.
