Techniques of transaction support for a database are disclosed herein. One example technique includes generating a new version value for key-value pairs in the database and creating, in the database, a new key-value pair corresponding to a parameter to be updated with a new value using both the generated new version value and a name of the parameter as a key and the new value as the corresponding value for the created new key-value pair. The example technique can then include determining whether creating the new key-value pair is completed successfully in the database, and in response to determining that creating the new key-value pair corresponding to the parameter is not completed successfully, the existing value of the parameter is returned as a current value of the parameter instead of the new value in response to a query for the current value of the parameter.

Transactional support for non-relational database

Embodiments are directed to determining in an email data store which of a plurality of email mailboxes is searchable, to searching multiple mailboxes in an email data store and to preserving data items that are placed on hold. In an embodiment, a web service receives a request to determine which among many different email mailboxes is available for searching. The web service allows multiple different programs to search the email data store. The web service sends a query to the email data store to determine which email mailboxes are available for searching. The web service also returns a list of those email mailboxes which are searchable in the data store. The searchable mailboxes have an appropriate, specified version and permissions indicating that the mailbox is searchable.

Cross-platform data preservation

Network infrastructure management may be provided. First, administrative tools associated with a plurality of network topologies may be provided in a management console. Providing the administrative tools may comprise providing a first set of tools associated with a first network topology in the console. The first network topology may be an on-premises topology. Providing the administrative tools may also comprise providing a second set of tools associated with a second network topology in the console. The second network topology may be a cloud topology. Next, communications for the plurality of network topologies may be established to manage the plurality of network topologies through the management console. Establishing the communications for the plurality of network topologies may comprise establishing a first communications channel between the first network topology and the console. In addition, establishing the communications may comprise establishing a second communications channel between the second network topology.

Network infrastructure management

A role-based Graphical User Interface (GUI) may be provided. First, information associated with an application user may be received. A role associated the application user may be then determined. The role may then be analyzed to determine which application elements are permitted to the user and which application elements are restricted from the application user. Next, the permitted application elements may be loaded with permissible GUI elements visible and restricted GUI elements hidden. The permissible GUI elements may be associated with the application elements permitted to the application user, while the restricted GUI elements may be associated with the application elements restricted from the user.
