The present invention relates to a method for handling response times in a communication system comprising at least one data retention system having at least one storage space for retained data. The at least one storage space has a defined response time (high, medium, low) for delivering retained data. The method comprises the following steps: &#x2014;Receiving a request for retained data from an authorized organization to the at least one data retention system, which request comprises a specified data type and a retention time range &#x2014;Dividing in the at least one data retention system, the received retention time range into at least one time segment each corresponding to one defined response time &#x2014;Delivering an acknowledge message from the at least one data retention system to the authorized organization, which message comprises response and identification information corresponding to the at least one divided time segment.

Retained data handling at differentiated response times

A method and apparatus for handling a data object accessible by more than one node. A server in a communication network stores information relating to the data object stored at a first node. The server then receives a subscription request message from a second node. This subscription request message subscribes to updates relating to the data object stored at the first node. A copy of the data object is accessible by the second node. The server subsequently receives a publication message relating to a change to the data object stored at the first node and which indicates an identity of the data object and an indication of the changes. The server sends a notification message relating to the change to the data object towards the second node, which is usable by the second node to make corresponding changes to the copy of the data object accessible by the second node.
