Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed herein for obtaining data about a network having at least a first node and a second node. A server transmits to the first node a first request for the first node to send a communication to the second node. The server is outside of the network, and the first request includes a first address of the first node and a second address of the second node. The server receives, from the first node, an indication of whether the communication to the second node is successful. The server receives, from the first node, a second request for access to a file stored on the server, determines that the file is stored locally at the second node, and transmits, to the first node, an instruction to retrieve the file from the second node, when the communication to the second node is successful.
Abstract:
Systems and methods disclosed herein relate to a method of storing metadata for a file on a cloud based storage system. A server may receive a request from a third party application to store metadata for a file. The server may determine a metadata type based on the request. The server may associate the metadata value with an application identifier. The application identifier may identify a third party application. The server may store the metadata value based on the determined metadata type. The stored metadata may be associated with the application identifier and the stored metadata value may include information related to an anchor. The anchor may be an attribute of the file, and anchor can change respectively as the attribute changes.
Abstract:
A method includes receiving a search request including a search input; and identifying a history information item based on the search input. The history includes information describing a prior state of an object. The method also includes determining whether information describing a current state of the object corresponds to the search input. The method includes outputting a prior-state based search result item that identifies the object and includes information based on the history information item. If the information describing the current state of the object corresponds to the search input, the method includes outputting a current-state based search result item that includes a link for accessing the object.
Abstract:
Systems and methods are disclosed herein for accessing portions of a file at a client device. One or more portions of a file are selected for downloading to the client device, wherein the file is stored on a web-based storage system in communication with the client device via a network. At least one portion in the selected one or more portions is identified that is not stored on the client device. A request is transmitted, without user interaction, to the web-based storage system to download the identified at least one portion of the file, and the identified at least one portion of the file is downloaded to the client device via the network.
