Abstract: Embodiments are directed to association of storage objects in a multi-tenant, cloud-based storage environment. More specifically, a first object can be made available in the file system of the environment and can be accessed, for example, by its file or object name. At some point thereafter, an auxiliary object can be provided that is related to the first object. For example, this auxiliary object can comprise metadata or other content associated with or related to the first object. According to one embodiment, this auxiliary object can be assigned an identifier that not only uniquely identifies the auxiliary object but also identifies, within the identifier itself, the relationship to the first object. This relational naming can be used to track the relationship between objects, e.g., to update the auxiliary object based on changes to the first object, but without a separate mapping of the objects.

Abstract: Systems and methods for managing content in a cloud-based service platform. A method embodiment operates over storage content objects stored in storage devices in a cloud-based shared content management system. The method commences upon identifying a source object and identifying derivative objects that are generated based properties of the source object. After a time, candidate eviction objects are identified. One form of analysis is performed over source objects and another form of analysis is performed over derivative objects. Derivative objects are classified using the analysis, which classification is used to determine object management commands associated with the derivative object such as to remove the derivative object from one storage location (e.g., in a high-performance storage filer) and relocate it to another (e.g., lower cost) storage location. Based on the analysis, a derivative object might be deleted completely and then regenerated at a later time if/when needed.
