Abstract: Systems for managing shared content in a cloud-based service platform. A method commences upon identifying one or more storage devices that store one or more content objects. The storage devices may be partitioned into geographically distant locations. A first partition in one geography is associated with a first set of content objects and a second partition is associated with a second set of content objects. An inviter-collaborator generates a set of outgoing collaboration attributes pertaining to a shared content object from the first partition. The outgoing collaboration attributes are stored on the inviter's partition. An invitee-collaborator accepts the invitation and generates a set of incoming collaboration attributes that derive from the set of outgoing collaboration attributes. The set of incoming collaboration attributes are stored on the invitee's partition. The invitations can be sent and received through operation of a web application that facilitates offering invitations and acceptance of those invitations.
