A synchronization queuing service associated with a content management system repository can record file events occurring to content items maintained at the content management system repository. The synchronization queuing service can receive a file synchronization request for information identifying a content item to which a client machine is subscribed. The synchronization queuing service can determine consistency or inconsistency of a client machine state of the content item relative to the content item at the content management system repository and can respond to client machine with a file event summary comprising information usable by the client machine to identify actions necessary to synchronize the client machine state of the content item the content item.

Synchronization of client machines with a content management system repository

Content maintained in a first repository of a first installation (which can optionally be an on-premise installation) of a content management system, as well as metadata associated with the content, can be shared via an approach in which content items maintained in the first repository are synchronized with a copy of the content items maintained in a second repository of a second installation (which can optionally be a cloud-based installation). The first installation can be optionally firewall protected. The copy of the content items can be accessed by collaborative users both within and external to a firewall. Related systems, methods, products, etc. are described.
