摘要:
An extensible and automatically replicating server farm configuration management infrastructure is provided. A centralized configuration database stores all configuration data for the server farm. New configuration data can be added to the configuration database by extending a configuration object model without knowing or changing the schema of the configuration database. A synchronization mechanism is provided for each server in the server farm to automatically keep configuration data in the server farm synchronized across multiple servers in the server farm.

The present invention facilitates the sharing of resources among multiple applications hosted on a server using shared resource providers. A shared resource provider is a logical grouping of shared services and resources to support the shared services, and is associated with one or more applications hosted on a computing device. The server fulfills requests for the shared services from the shared resource provider with which the requesting application is associated. Shared resource providers may be associated with many different applications, but each application may be associated with only one shared resource provider. The shared services may be configured for consumption by the applications at the server level, at the level of the shared resource provider, and the level of the application.

This disclosure describes techniques that enable a subscriber of a data center to manage a site collection group hosted by the data center. A site collection group is a set of site collections that belong to a single subscriber. A site collection is a collection of websites. A website is a collection of related resources. Each of the site collections is associated with an “owner”. As described herein, the data center presents management interfaces that enable owners of site collections to manage the site collections. In addition, the data center presents management interfaces that enable subscribers to manage architectural aspects of their site collection groups.

Resources may be published to one or more computer networks. However, linking and retrieval of these resources are prone to error because resource addresses may depend on the network that is used to access the resource. The present invention is generally directed to dynamically rendering links based on the location of the computer that generated a request. Dynamically rendering links allows resources to be published to multiple networks and referenced without resources appearing to be inaccessible to users.
