Abstract: The present technology pertains to a link service that can create, maintain, and service links to objects on behalf of a content management system or other services. The link service can share administration of links with other services when desired or can even allow other services to issue the link and manage the object that is the subject of the link while providing other functions to support the link. Additionally, link service can interface with a file system that can support links as actors in the file system, whereby greater control and flexibility in supporting links is provided. Link service can also accommodate servicing and management of links issued by legacy services, where the legacy services have unique link logic that should still be utilized to maintain a consistent user experience.

Abstract: Systems and methods are provided for intent tracking asynchronous operations. An example method can include receiving, at a content management system (CMS), a first request to perform an operation on a content item stored at the CMS; adding the request to perform the operation to a queue of operations to be processed by the CMS; and prior to completing the operation: receiving, from a client device associated with a user account registered at the CMS, a second request to access the content item; in response to the second request, determining a predicted state of the content item, the predicted state of the content item reflecting a result of performing the operation on the content item; and providing, to the client device, a response including the predicted state of the content item.

Abstract: A content management system provides content item sharing and synchronization for users of client devices. The content items stored by content management system can include any type of data, such as digital data, media, data files and databases, source and object code, recordings, and any other type of data or file. A collaboration content item management system allows users to create, edit and share collaboration content items among a plurality of other users. Collaboration content items are files that a users can create and edit using a collaboration content items editor, and are composed of collaboration content item elements. The content management system and collaboration content item management system provide functionality for linking content items with collaboration content items to keep the contents of each synchronized with one another and allow for access of the same content from both systems.

Abstract: Systems and methods for snapshot isolation in a distributed storage system M are provided. In some examples, a method can include receiving a request for data from a data store comprising a plurality of storage nodes, the request comprising a key associated with the data and a request timestamp, identifying a storage node in the plurality of storage nodes from which to read the data based on the key and a mapping of keys to storage nodes, determining that the request is associated with a transaction comprising operations associated with at least one other storage node in the plurality of storage nodes, determining a status of the entry for the key in the key-value table based on a lookup of a transaction table using the transaction identifier, and providing the data when the status of the entry for the key indicates the data is ready to be read.
