    Abstract: A digital content distribution framework is provided. According to one embodiment, a digital content distribution system, such as a software distribution system, includes a credentialing authority, an access control component, and a digital content distribution system interface for each participant in the system. The credentialing authority component is configured to receive encryption keys associated with the participants and assign each of the participants an identity certificate for use during subsequent interactions with components of the digital content distribution system. The access control component is configured to maintain information regarding access rights of the participants to digital content accessible via the digital content distribution system. The digital content distribution system interfaces are capable of being customized for the corresponding participant and are configured to coordinate interactions among the corresponding participant and the components of the digital content distribution system according to predetermined business processes associated with the corresponding participant.

    Abstract: Embodiments relate generally to ensuring version compliance for software products used within an enterprise. Generally, compliance is checked by comparing the number of actual uses of each product version to license information relating to product versions. An enterprise is compliant if use of a product version is covered by a license. License information and actual usage information are generally collected to allow for such a comparison. Information concerning license attributes such as downgrade coverage and/or license type may allow for a more accurate determination of the number of each product version ultimately available. Additionally, a rollup procedure may be used to apply updates to base licenses. Version compliance may be performed as a stand-alone feature, or it may be used in conjunction with an entitlement coordination framework to manage usage throughout the enterprise.

    Abstract translation: 实施例一般涉及确保在企业内使用的软件产品的版本符合性。 通常,通过将每个产品版本的实际使用数量与与产品版本相关的许可信息进行比较来检查合规性。 如果使用产品版本被许可证覆盖,则企业是合规的。 通常收集许可证信息和实际使用信息,以便进行此类比较。 关于诸如降级覆盖和/或许可证类型的许可证属性的信息可以允许更准确地确定最终可用的每个产品版本的数量。 此外,可以使用汇总程序将更新应用于基本许可证。 版本合规性可以作为独立功能执行,或者可以与授权协调框架一起使用以管理整个企业的使用。
