MECHANISM FOR FACILITATING MANAGEMENT OF METADATA AND METADA-BASED UPDATE OF SOFTWARE
First Claim
1. A computer-implemented method comprising:
- receiving metadata relating to a software application, wherein the metadata is received from one or more users via one or more computing devices hosting the software application;
generating a platform setup entity to process the received metadata;
updating existing metadata of the software application using the received metadata; and
packaging a newer version of the software application having the updated existing metadata.
