Abstract
Shared content is stored at a cloud-based collaboration platform hosted at first network domain. External data processing services are hosted at a second domain. An integration layer situated between the cloud-based collaboration platform and the external data processing services is configured to receive triggering events pertaining to content of the cloud-based collaboration platform. Based on characteristics of the content, communications with the external data processing services are initiated. The communication includes accessing network interfaces to send and receive data between the network domain of the cloud-based collaboration platform and a different network domain of the external data processing services. A plurality of rules are applied to select between a first external data processing service at a first network domain and a second external data processing service at a second domain. The selected external data processing service is invoked to produce outputs that are further processed by the cloud-based collaboration platform.
