Documents maintained by a first storage system that supports security groups are synchronized to a second storage system that supports group entities, which are incompatible with security groups. Permissions associated with the synchronized documents, including security groups, can be synchronized from the first storage system to the second storage system when a security group is created, when membership in a security group is modified, and when a security group is deleted. Synchronization of security groups in this manner can also be selectively enabled on a per-site basis or at another level of granularity.

Synchronizing security groups

A data processing system implements identifying one-way correctness issues in datasets of large computing systems including a first computing system and a second computing system. The second computing system is associated with a dependent dataset that includes references to data in a second datastore associated with the first computing system. These references updated in response to changes to the data referred to by these references. However, errors can cause the two datasets to become out of sync. The system herein implements automatically identifying unattached items in a dependent dataset that references items in a reference dataset that is no longer present in the reference dataset by comparing the dependent dataset with the reference dataset, and automatically causing the second computing system to delete the unattached items from the dependent dataset.

Techniques for automatically identifying and fixing one way correctness issues between two large computing systems

Systems and methods for reprocessing documents in a database system include receiving job definitions performing reprocessing operations on documents in the database system, and generating recrawl jobs based on the job definitions. The recrawl jobs are flighted to the database system. Iterations of recrawl timer jobs are generated for each of the databases based on a predefined recrawl timer job base class. Each of the recrawl timer job iterations being configured to access a recrawl job list for the one of the databases and access a property list for the databases to identify recrawl job information stored in the property list. Based on the recrawl job information, a respective batch of documents to be reprocessed in association with each of the recrawl jobs on the recrawl job list is selected. The batches of documents are then reprocessed in accordance with the recrawl jobs. The recrawl job information is then updated based on the completion of the batches.

A web template author can author interactive web templates via a static markup language-based authoring tool. The web template author can insert static markup language snippets representing one or more configurable controls of a web template into a static markup language-based authoring tool. Each snippet includes a definition of a preview of a configurable control in a static markup language as well as one or more disabled CMS instructions for the configurable control. The web template author can configure and view previews of the inserted configurable controls as they are added to the web template being developed within the static markup language-based authoring tool. When the web template author is satisfied with a version of a web template, the web template author can upload the static markup language definition of the web template to the server, where the web template is converted into a CMS-compatible web template.

Designing interactive web templates

Web page optimization systems and methods are disclosed herein. In one implementation, a number of master pages and page layouts used to generate the web pages are defined. A number of channels are then defined to be associated with certain ones of the master pages and the page layouts. User device generating the request, a browser used to generate the request, or other suitable components of a user agent string in a web page request is then identified. A web page is dynamically rendered in response to the identified components of the user agent string using the master page and the page layout associated with a channel identified by such components of the web page request.
