20100198791 | SYSTEM, METHOD, AND COMPUTER PROGRAM PRODUCT FOR ALLOWING ACCESS TO BACKUP DATA - A system, method, and computer program product are provided for allowing access to backup data resulting from performance of one or more recovery point backup operations and one or more full backup operations. This is accomplished by associating recovery point backup operations with full backup operations and allowing access to backup data resulting from performance of the recovery point backup operations and the full backup operations. In this way, logs corresponding to the backup operations may be associated with a backup path, such that the logs may be accessed during a restore operation. Furthermore, the recovery point operations may be configured to provide a user defined granularity for data recovery. To this end, in various embodiments, backup data may be stored at a granularity defined by a user and recovered based on a user selection of a recovery point. | 08-05-2010 |

20130124480 | System and Method for Viewer Based Image Metadata Sanitization - A request to access a file comprising content and metadata is received. In response to determining the request is from a source other than an owner of the content (or file), a copy of the content is generated and the content's metadata is modified in order to create modified metadata for the copy of the content. A Uniform Resource Locator (URL) that provides access to the copy of the content and the modified metadata is provided to the source of the request. However, in response to determining the request is from the owner of the content, a URL that provides access to the content and the metadata is provided to the owner of the content. | 05-16-2013 |
20130124481 | UPGRADE OF HIGHLY AVAILABLE FARM SERVER GROUPS - A machine manager controls the deployment and management of machines (physical and virtual) for an online service. Multi-tier server groups are arranged in farms that each may include different configurations. For example, their may be content farms, federated services farms and SQL farms that are arranged to perform operations for the online service. When the multiple farms are upgraded, new farms are deployed and the associated content databases from the old farms are moved to the newly deployed farms. During the upgrade of the farms, requests may continue to be processed by the farms. The farms may be automatically load balanced during an upgrade. As content becomes available on the new farm, requests for the content may be automatically redirected to the new farm. | 05-16-2013 |

A type of next backup, (i.e., a next backup), is determined wherein the type of next backup is an incremental backup when the sum of the heuristic, and the times to: restore the latest full backup, restore zero or more incremental backups, complete a current incremental backup, and perform a full backup is less than the received RTO, else the type of the next backup is a full backup. A time to schedule the next backup is scheduled based on the received RTO being a total of an amount of time to: complete the type of next backup; rollforward zero or more transaction log records; and to restore at least one backup. | 03-19-2015 |
20150106337 | ACTION RECORDS ASSOCIATED WITH EDITABLE CONTENT OBJECTS - A program manages various different parts of editable content, including one or more objects. Various different actions can be performed on an object to edit or change the object in some manner. A program presenting the editable content maintains one or more object action records, each object action record being a record of actions performed on a particular object of the editable content. A program can also maintain a document action record that includes indications of actions performed on parts of the editable content that are not objects having an associated object action record, as well as optionally actions performed on the objects having an associated object action record. In response to a user request to undo an action on a particular object, the actions in the object action list associated with the particular object are undone without undoing any intervening actions performed on other parts of the editable content. | 04-16-2015 |
