1. A method of activating a component in a computing system having a plurality of partitions, the method comprising:

  • receiving a request to activate a component having an object class ID from a client computing system having a client ID, wherein the client ID identifies the client computing system;

    mapping the client ID to a partition corresponding to the client ID;

    detecting if the object class ID is contained within a default partition corresponding to the partition;

    if the object class ID is contained within the default partition, activating an instance of the component in the partition;

    if the object class ID is not contained within the default partition, detecting if the object class ID is contained within a base partition;

    if the object class ID is contained in the base partition, activating an instance of the component in the base partition; and

    forming a component ID that uniquely identifies the component across all of the plurality of partitions of the computing system, the component ID including the object class ID, and a partition ID provided either by the client computing system in the request, or by the computing system if not provided by the client computing system in the request.
