    Abstract: A system and method for proactively sending hosted content items to user computing devices. In one implementation, an online content management system collects access event data representing a plurality of access events pertaining a plurality of hosted content items. The system determines a cross-device access signal for a first hosted content item. The system then detects a first access event pertaining to the first hosted content item. Thereafter, the system determines whether the first access event matches the cross-device access signal. If the first access event matches the cross-device access signal, then the system sends a second hosted content item to a user computing device. The second hosted content item can be the first hosted content item. Alternatively, the second hosted content item can be a content item that is related to the first hosted content item according to the access event data.

    Abstract: Multi-user computer search system with methodology for bypassing instant indexing of documents. In some embodiments, for example, a system for bypassing instant indexing includes a token store storing a set of token for a current version of a document and a tokenizer server configured to tokenize a new version of the document and to generate a set of tokens for the new version of the document. The system further includes an instant indexer server configured to determine tokens to index the document by based on identified differences between the set of tokens for the new version of the document and the set of tokens for the current version of the document, to determine whether the new version of the document is a bypass document version or non-bypass document version, and to generate an index mutation for the new version of the document including a specification of whether the generated index mutation is a bypass index mutation or a non-bypass index mutation based on whether the new version of the document is a bypass document version or non-bypass document version. The system also includes an index mutation server configured to provide the generated index mutation to an index server, if the generated index mutation is a non-bypass index mutation, or not provide the generated index mutation to the index server, if the generated index mutation is a bypass index mutation.

    Abstract: Disclosed are systems and methods of querying an event log of a user. The systems and methods can include receiving a search request pertaining to at least a first namespace of a plurality of namespaces and determining a first index server storing a first portion of the event log associated with the first namespace, the first index server being one of a plurality of index servers, each of the plurality of index servers storing a portion of the event log pertaining to at least one namespace of the plurality of namespaces. The systems and method can further include searching, the first portion of the event log stored at the first index server and determining a payload based on the search results of the first portion of the event logs. Finally, the systems and methods can include applying one or more attribute filters to the payload and sending the filtered payload.

    Abstract: A multi-user search system with methodology for instant indexing. In one embodiment, for example, a system for instant indexing includes a token store storing sets of tokens for current versions of documents. The system further includes a tokenizer server configured to tokenize new versions of the documents and to generate sets of tokens for the new versions of the documents, an instant indexer configured to determine tokens to use to index the documents based on identified differences between the sets of tokens for the new versions of the documents and the sets of tokens for the current versions of the documents, and to generate index mutations including the tokens to use to index the documents, an index mutation journal configured to store the generated index mutations in association with timestamps, and an index mutation server configured to provide, to index servers, from the index mutation journal, generated index mutations for the index servers that are associated with timestamps that are newer than specified timestamps.

    Abstract: Techniques for proactively sending hosted content items to user computing devices. In one embodiment, for example, a method includes collecting access event data representing a plurality of access events pertaining to a content item hosted with an online content management service; based on the access event data indicating that the content item is accessed at a plurality of user computing devices, determining a cross-device access signal for the content item; collecting additional access event data representing a third access event pertaining to the content item; and based on the additional access event data satisfying the cross-device access signal, sending at least a portion of the content item to a user computing device of the plurality of user computing devices.

    Abstract: A multi-user search system with methodology for personal searching. In one embodiment, for example, a computer-implemented method includes: receiving a search query; routing the search query to a particular index server based on an identifier of a document namespace; using the identifier of the document namespace at the particular index server to identify a set of matching and authorized indexed documents; and providing an answer to the search query identifying the set of matching and authorized indexed documents.
