A deployment proxy service is provided to manage communications between a client device and a deployment service. The deployment proxy service receives upload requests from the client device and saves software artifacts associated with the upload request in a proxy repository. The deployment proxy service determines a continuation deployment action that describes information about a target machine to which the software artifacts are applicable. When appropriate, the deployment proxy service provides information to the deployment service that enables the deployment service to deploy the software artifacts to the target machine (e.g., to update an application of the target machine).

Architecture for incremental deployment

In some embodiments, a system includes a proxy and an application server. The proxy is operable to intercept a request to download application content from an application server, insert an address of a navigation service into the request to yield an augmented request, and transmit the augmented request to the application server. The application server is operable to receive the augmented request, generate an application in response to the augmented request, the application comprising the application content, a navigation placeholder, and code to access the navigation service at the address, the navigation placeholder representing a portion of the application where the navigation service may be inserted, and transmit the application for receipt by the client.

Client side navigation compositor

A first request from a client using a first protocol is translated into one or more second requests by a servicer using a second protocol through a virtual request using the first protocol. A client may use parameters of the first protocol to pass virtual request components to the servicer. A format agreement between the client, servicer and/or authentication service may allow the servicer and/or authentication service to translate the virtual request components over the first protocol to one or more second requests using the second protocol. Virtual request components may also prove the authenticity of the virtual request received by the servicer to an authentication service. Once satisfied the virtual request is valid, the authentication service may issue a credential to the servicer to send the one or more second requests to an independent service. Virtual requests may be included in various protocols, including credential-based protocols and certificate exchange-based protocols.

Virtual requests

A deploy service is provided to determine a set of software artifacts that needs to be transmitted to a target machine upon receiving an application deployment request from a user of a client device. For instance, the deploy service may compare versions of software artifacts on the target machine with the software artifacts of the application that the user desires to deploy to determine the set of software artifacts that needs to be transmitted. Instead of having to transmit the entire application, some embodiments transmit only a small portion that is reflective of what has been changed between the old version of the application and the new version of the application. This enables the transfer of large files across the Internet to be more efficient.

Systems and methods for providing information responsive to a request. In an embodiment, a request from a requestor is received. A plurality of eligible information sources that are capable of providing data at least partially responsive to the information request are identified. For each identified information source, a data request according to a schema accepted by the identified information source is prepared and responses from the eligible information sources are received. The responses are homogenized according to a common schema and information from the homogenized responses are provided to the requestor.

Techniques for aggregating data from multiple sources

A first request from a client using a first protocol is translated into one or more second requests by a servicer using a second protocol through a virtual request using the first protocol. A client may use parameters of the first protocol to pass virtual request components to the servicer. A format agreement between the client, servicer and/or authentication service may allow the servicer and/or authentication service to translate the virtual request components over the first protocol to one or more second requests using the second protocol. Virtual request components may prove the authenticity of the virtual request received by the servicer to an authentication service. Once satisfied the virtual request is valid, the authentication service may issue a credential to the servicer to send the one or more second requests to an independent service. Virtual requests may be included in various protocols, including credential-based protocols and certificate exchange-based protocols.
