Abstract
A base application data store may contain a base application source metadata file with at least one extension point that defines a permission associated with the extension point in connection with a base application. An extension application server, coupled to the base application data store, retrieves the base application source metadata file and caches the base application source metadata file as a read only file. The extension application server then generates a merge map file with an extension change to the base application metadata file. The base application source metadata file and the merge map file may be, for example, merged in accordance with the defined permission to create a result metadata file for the base application. In some embodiments, the extension application server subscribes to application updates for the base application, and the extension change is reported and validated in accordance with the permission associated with extension point.
