Event processing techniques for updating a database in real time based on events in a continuous event stream are disclosed. The techniques can update the database to incorporate information from thousands of received events per second. The events can include metrics measuring milestones for an organizational process defined by a user. Moreover, multiple streams can include metrics from many tenants concurrently. The techniques include receiving, from a first user device, information identifying a group identifier for a first action object. The techniques then include assigning the identifier to the first action object and to at least one other action object. The techniques then include transmitting, to a service provider, data identifying the assignment of the group identifier, receiving second information identifying events processed by the service provider, identifying events corresponding to the identifier, and generating a user interface configured to present elements corresponding to the identified events.

Techniques for configuring workflow event processing and identifier federation

Event processing techniques for updating a database in real time based on events in a continuous event stream are disclosed. The techniques can update the database to incorporate information from thousands of received events per second. The events can include metrics measuring milestones for an organizational process defined by a user. Moreover, multiple streams can include metrics from many tenants concurrently. The techniques include receiving a plurality of events corresponding to a time interval and identifying that two events share a value of a key attribute. The techniques then include causing to be generated an in-memory combined database record comprising a combination of first and second attribute information from the two events and the value of the key attribute. In response to a trigger signal, the techniques include transmitting a single message, based at least in part on the combined database record, to update the database.

Techniques for in-memory stitching

Techniques are described for managing access to a repository system storing information (e.g. metadata) about objects (e.g. an application a process or a service) in a computing environment. The repository system can store a data structure (an 'entity') that includes information about an object. An entity can have an association with one or more collections of entities ('assets') that classify a collection of entities. Access to perform actions (e.g. create read update or delete) an entity can be managed based on an entitlement which grants a right to access information in the entity and/or at least one asset having an association with the entity. The repository system can manage access to one or more entities based on rights implied by an entitlement to access one or more assets associated with those entities.

A computer-readable storage medium storing instructions executable by a processor for resolving permissions using role activation operators to evaluate permissions assigned to a user in a role context inheritance hierarchy. The stored instructions comprise several steps: a step of retrieving a plurality of activated roles within a role context that match roles assigned to a user, wherein one or more permissions in the role context inherit from one or more permissions in a parent role context in a role context permission inheritance hierarchy; a step of determining an aggregate permission for each of the plurality of activated roles, wherein a role activation operator determines how an activated role is evaluated; a step of processing the aggregate permissions for the plurality of activated roles; and a step of resolving a final permission for the user.

Computer readable medium for resolving permission for role activation operators

A method for resolving permissions using role activation operators to evaluate permissions assigned to a user in a role context inheritance hierarchy. The method comprises several steps. A step of retrieving a plurality of activated roles within a role context that match roles assigned to a user, wherein one or more permissions in the role context inherit from one or more permissions in a parent role context in a role context permission inheritance hierarchy. A step of determining an aggregate permission for each of the plurality of activated roles, wherein a role activation operator determines how an activated role is evaluated. A step of processing the aggregate permissions for the plurality of activated roles. A step of resolving a final permission for the user.
