POLICY-BASED COMPUTATION AND STORAGE OF CLOUD-BASED COLLABORATION OBJECTS
First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- configuring a server in a cloud-based environment, wherein the server is configured to interface with one or more content management resource sites that are accessible over a network by the server to provide cloud-based storage services in response to an object processing command;
receiving, by the server, the object processing command comprising at least one object processing activity and at least one object storage activity;
determining, by a first evaluation of one or more first metrics pertaining to one or more object processing sites, one or more feasible object processing sites, the one or more feasible object processing sites capable of executing at least a portion of the object processing activity; and
determining, by a second evaluation of one or more second metrics pertaining to one or more object storage sites, one or more feasible object storage sites, the one or more feasible object storage sites capable of executing at least a portion of the object storage activity,wherein the first evaluation of at least some of the feasible object processing sites is performed independently from the second evaluation of at least some of the object storage sites.

Abstract
One or more servers are deployed in a cloud-based environment such that the cloud-based servers are configured to interface with one or more object processing target sites. In response to an object processing command, various combinations of feasible activities to perform at feasible target sites (e.g., object processing sites) are considered so as to generate object processing scenarios capable of executing object processing commands while observing constraints that may derive from the nature of, and/or attributes pertaining to the object processing sites. A scenario including a determination of one or more target sites is selected from the considered object processing scenarios. The selected one or more target sites are used to activate the object processing commands (e.g., for computation and/or for storage activities). A target site may be a country or state or other jurisdiction that inures benefits (e.g., tax benefits) and/or limitations (e.g., import/export limitations) pertaining to specific activities.

19. A system comprising:
-
a storage medium having stored thereon a sequence of instructions; and one or more processors that execute the instructions to cause the one or more processors to perform a set of acts, the acts comprising, configuring a server in a cloud-based environment, wherein the server is configured to interface with one or more content management resource sites that are accessible over a network by the server to provide cloud-based storage services in response to an object processing command; receiving, by the server, the object processing command comprising at least one object processing activity and at least one object storage activity; determining, by a first evaluation of one or more first metrics pertaining to one or more object processing sites, one or more feasible object processing sites, the one or more feasible object processing sites capable of executing at least a portion of the object processing activity; and determining, by a second evaluation of one or more second metrics pertaining to one or more object storage sites, one or more feasible object storage sites, the one or more feasible object storage sites capable of executing at least a portion of the object storage activity, wherein the first evaluation of at least some of the feasible object processing sites is performed independently from the second evaluation of at least some of the object storage sites. - View Dependent Claims (20)
