Abstract
For seamlessly abstracting metadata in multiple formats, an abstraction module converts first metadata of an incoming object and additional metadata for the incoming object from an annotation map contained by the first metadata into a common format useable. The additional metadata is not part of an original format of the first metadata. A communication module communicates the converted metadata to an adapter in the common format, the adapter processing the first metadata and the additional metadata independent of the original format of the first metadata.
