Abstract:
A computer-implemented method and system is disclosed in which a network-based interaction environment includes a plurality of peer-to-peer nodes being able to communicate directly with each other using a peer-to-peer protocol and a peer-to-peer client application, and a first peer-to-peer client application to maintain persistent item information on at least one peer-to-peer node of the plurality of peer-to-peer nodes, the persistent information describing to an item. The first peer-to-peer client application further to maintain persistent user account information in the storage device of the first peer-to-peer node that includes a plurality of peer-to-peer accounts associated with a user account of the first peer-to-peer node. Each peer-to-peer account is assigned to a different role from among a plurality of roles that correspond to a different particular operation in a transaction for the item.
Abstract:
Systems, methods and media are provided for facilitating an exchange of messages between a remote client application and a server system the server system, the server system being capable of supporting a plurality of application program interfaces (APIs) that includes a targeted API. In one example, a method includes receiving a plurality of request messages generated by the remote client application, each request message requesting an activity to be performed by the targeted API, with respect to an associated application, and comprising at least one data component common to each of the plurality of request messages and selected from a group comprising a predetermined required level of detail, an error language component and a version identifier, and a request component including a reusable identified schema definition.
Abstract:
In one example, a server system facilitates an exchange of messages with a remote client application. An Application Program Interface (API) receives a first request message and a second request message, wherein the first request message includes a first data payload defined by a common definition and including a first payload data, the first payload defined by a first schema definition. The second request message includes a second data payload defined by the common definition and a second payload data, wherein the second payload is defined by a second schema definition different than the first schema definition. In response to receiving the first request message, the API transmits a first response message, and in response to receiving the second request message, the API transmits a second response.

Abstract:
A method of accommodating at least one difference between a first database schema and a second database schema is provided. The method includes receiving a request generated by an application program using a first version of a database schema, and generating a response including a reserved element that corresponds to a custom slot provided in the first version of the database schema. The method further includes communicating the response to the application program.
Abstract:
A computer-implemented method and system is disclosed in which a network-based interaction environment includes a plurality of peer-to-peer nodes being able to communicate directly with each other using a peer-to-peer protocol and a peer-to-peer client application, and a first peer-to-peer client application to maintain persistent item information on at least one peer-to-peer node of the plurality of peer-to-peer nodes, the persistent information being related to an item being offered by a first user of the first peer-to-peer client application.
Abstract:
A method of accommodating at least one difference between a first database schema and a second database schema is provided. The method includes receiving a response generated by a first application program using a first database schema, identifying a value in the response that is unrecognizable to a second application program using a second database schema and substituting, using a processor, the value that is unrecognizable to the second application program with a reserved element recognizable to the second application program, the reserved element indicating to the second application program that a portion of the response is not recognizable to the second application program. The method further includes communicating the response to the second application program.
Abstract:
Methods and systems for enabling peer-to-peer systems are disclosed. The server system includes one or more processors, memory, and one or more programs stored in the memory. The server system receives from a first peer to peer node in a plurality of peer to peer nodes, a request for item information associated with one or more items. The server system converts the requested item information into a format useful for the peer-to-peer network. The server system transmits the requested item information to the first peer-to-peer node for persistent storage such that other peer-to-peer nodes in the plurality of peer-to-peer nodes can search for item information within the peer-to-peer network. The server system receives an authentication request from a second peer-to-peer node that is used to authenticate a transaction between a first user associated with the second peer-to-peer node and a second user.
Abstract:
A plurality of application servers hosts a plurality of business applications. A plurality of Application Program Interface (API) servers host a plurality of APIs to provide programmatic access to the plurality of business applications, each of the APIs configured to receive request messages compiled by a remote client application. An example method includes receiving a plurality of request messages generated by the remote client application, each request message requesting an activity to be performed by the targeted API, with respect to an associated application, and comprising at least one data component, and a request component including a reusable identified schema definition specific to the targeted API.
Abstract:
A plurality of application servers hosts a plurality of business applications. A plurality of Application Program Interface (API) servers host a plurality of APIs to provide programmatic access to the plurality of business applications, each of the APIs configured to receive request messages compiled by a remote client application. First and second request messages targeted to first and second APIs have at least one common data component. The first request message includes a first payload specific to the first targeted API and the second request message includes a second payload specific to the second targeted API, the first payload and the second payload each comprise a reusable identified schema definition specific to the targeted API.
