SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF MULTI-STAGE CONFIGURATION SERVICE FOR POLICY-DRIVEN TRANSFORMATION - A simplified explanation of the abstract
This abstract first appeared for US patent application 20240264848 titled 'SYSTEMS AND METHODS OF MULTI-STAGE CONFIGURATION SERVICE FOR POLICY-DRIVEN TRANSFORMATION
The abstract describes a multi-stage configuration service in a cloud computing environment that receives transformation requests from clients and constructs configuration files based on policies to perform requested transformations on source files.
- The multi-stage configuration service sets or constrains settings in the configuration file according to facets in the policy.
- It checks the structural correctness of the configuration file with user-provided overriding property values.
- The service either enqueues the configuration file for a publishing agent to perform the transformation or returns an error report to the client device.
Potential Applications: - Cloud computing environments - Configuration management services - Transformation requests in software applications
Problems Solved: - Efficiently handling transformation requests in a cloud environment - Ensuring correct settings and constraints in configuration files - Providing error reports for incorrect configurations
Benefits: - Streamlined transformation processes - Improved configuration accuracy - Enhanced client experience in requesting transformations
Commercial Applications: Title: Cloud-Based Configuration Management Service This technology can be used in various industries such as software development, data processing, and content management systems to automate and optimize transformation processes in cloud environments.
Questions about the technology: 1. How does the multi-stage configuration service handle conflicting policy facets in the transformation process? 2. What measures are in place to ensure the security of the configuration files in the cloud computing environment?
Original Abstract Submitted
a multi-stage configuration service running in a cloud computing environment receives a transformation request from a client device. based on a policy identified in the transformation request, the multi-stage configuration service constructs a configuration file containing key-value pairs representing settings of a requested transformation. the settings are set or constrained in accordance with zero or more facets contained in the policy that describe how an application feature is set or constrained in performing a transformation on a source file or files. the multi-stage configuration service determines, in accordance with the policy, whether the configuration file is structurally correct in view of a user-provided overriding property value and either enqueues the configuration file for a publishing agent in the cloud computing environment to perform the requested transformation or returns an error report to the client device.
