Computer-implemented methods, systems comprising computer-readable media, and electronic devices for completing queries propagated across a plurality of datasources

Abstract

A computer-implemented method for completing queries propagated across a plurality of datasources that may include receiving a search query comprising a search string via an application user interface. Identity information regarding an end user associated with the search query may also be received. At least one role of the end user may be automatically determined and authorization metadata corresponding to the at least one role may be automatically appended to the search query. A plurality of adapters corresponding to the datasources may be invoked and the appended search query may be passed to the adapters. The appended search query may be translated by the adapters into a plurality of translated search queries according to the syntax and format configurations of the datasources. The translated search queries may be automatically submitted to the corresponding datasources. Responsive results may be automatically received and presented at an end user computing device.
