The PAA system includes a first component configured to capture behavior-related information from the portal application, a second component configured to capture performance-related information from the portal application, a third component configured to capture auditing-related information from the portal application. The PAA system is further configured to start or stop with minimal impact on the portal application, wherein the PAA system is coded using Aspect Oriented Programming (AOP) and able to collect information from multiple threads Show less

A logical customer organization model is applied to group the individual agreements into separate logical customer organizations, wherein the groupings can be region based groupings, organization groupings and departmental groupings. Unified login identification (ID) model is applied to enable a first user to login to a portal using a first login ID to access a first asset in a first asset group according to a first logical customer organization. The unified login ID model enables the first… Show more

A logical customer organization model is applied to group the individual agreements into separate logical customer organizations, wherein the groupings can be region based groupings, organization groupings and departmental groupings. Unified login identification (ID) model is applied to enable a first user to login to a portal using a first login ID to access a first asset in a first asset group according to a first logical customer organization. The unified login ID model enables the first user to use the same first login ID to access a second asset in the first asset group according to the first logical customer organization. The unified login ID model also enables the first user to login to the portal using a second login ID to access one or more assets in a second asset group according to a second logical customer organization. Each of the first and second logical customer organization may be associated with one or more asset groups and one or more user groups. Show less

Integration of diverse software applications in i) a co-location facility, ii) communication interconnection network facility or ii) both. A transformation engine for datacenter colocation and network interconnection products may assist in a dynamic i) transformation of commands and ii) data structure translation as well as data structure transformation between a source application (SA) and a target application (TA) via two or more translation assist templates. The translation assist templates correlate to various combinations of the SAs, TAs, and the colocation or the network interconnection products. The network transformation engine may generate a new translation assist template when information regarding a new or updated application or product is loaded into a database. The new translation assist template may then be sent to a cache used by middleware to assist in the dynamic translation and transformation of the commands and the data structures to dynamically map out how a grammar and structure of the SA correlates to the TA.

In one example, a cloud-based services exchange comprises a plurality of interconnection assets configured to connect a customer of the cloud-based services exchange to one or more cloud service providers, the plurality of interconnection assets including a virtual circuit by which the customer accesses a cloud service from the one or more cloud service providers; and an orchestration engine configured to modify the plurality of interconnection assets.

In one example, an application development framework system comprises a microservice platform for developing and executing a plurality of microservices, wherein each microservice of the microservices comprises an independently-deployable service configured to execute one or more functions to fulfill an interface contract for an interface for the microservice; and an orchestration platform for developing and executing an orchestrator to orchestrate the microservices to execute an interconnection… Show more

At least one user is designated to manage assets including management delegations, access restrictions, and access permissions. Management responsibilities are applied based on business rules and based on a hierarchical model. The hierarchical model enables a well-defined logical flow of delegations and restrictions with pruning capability. User groups, asset groups, asset trees and asset permissions may be defined. The designated user can manage a single asset or all assets or a subset of… Show more
