A feedback service for use with a cloud application and a method of the feedback service are disclosed. The feedback service is coupled to a page of the cloud application. A pane of the feedback service is selectively displayed with the page, and the pane requests user input regarding the page.

Feedback service in cloud application

Computing systems, devices, and associated processes for distributed execution of extensions are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method includes receiving a user input at a client device for initiating an extension in a web page associated with a web site. In response to the received user input, a communication link between the client device and a remote computing facility can be established. The method can also include transmitting a request for initiating the extension, from the client device, to the remote computing facility via the established communication link and receiving, at the client device, data representing execution results of the requested extension from the remote computing facility.

Distributed extension execution in computing systems

Techniques for live data management are described. Some embodiments provide a Live Data Management System ('LDMS') that provides a facility for managing live data objects and for efficiently developing client-server applications that utilize such live data objects. Live data objects are modules of computation that exist on both a client side and server side portion of a client-server application. Live data objects are configured to monitor changes to data hosted on or accessible via the server side, and to automatically update the client side without the need for polling or other requests made by the client side. The described techniques facilitate efficient software development of Web-based client server applications.

Live data as a service and corresponding programming infrastructure

A method for designing software components for integration into any system without additional coding is provided. The method includes adopting a uniform application programming interface that breaks down external objects to include the characteristics of object, attribute, and method. Ideally, the characteristics include create object, delete object, read attributes, write attributes, and invoke behavior. A software tool is provided for communication between an API and a data source, the tool including a join engine adapted to provide communication between at least one view and at least one base source associated with the data source, the join engine further adapted to update the at least one base source in response to updates to the view. Ideally, the tool is further configured to support on the at least one base source operations of create object and delete object on the at least one view. The software tool is also configured to map events in the at least one base source to the at least one view, and can be configured to create virtual attributes based on the view through operations or expressions performed on the view, including, but not limited to algebraic expressions, names, strings, and functions.
