Abstract

The present disclosure includes a system and method for a serialized data service. A method for a serialized data service includes retrieving serialized data to a data service, and augmenting the serialized data with information corresponding to one or more data retention policies. The augmented serialized data is stored to a data source. The augmented serialized data is removed from the data source based on the augmented information.

Claims

1. A method for a serialized data service, comprising:

retrieving, via a server comprising one or more processors, serialized data to a data service;

augmenting the serialized data with information corresponding to one or more data retention policies;

storing the augmented serialized data to a data source;

removing the augmented serialized data from the data source based on the augmented information;

configuring an authorization model to specify attributes of authorized services involving the data source, wherein the authorization model specifies attributes of authorized services involving the data source, including query services and the data service;

configuring a retention policy to specify a correspondence between the one or more data retention policies and the augmented information; and

configuring a retention policy data taxonomy model to specify a correspondence between the one or more data retention policies and the augmented information.

2. The method of claim 1, wherein retrieving serialized data to the serialized data service includes retrieving the serialized data from a data source of a data provider.

3. The method of claim 1, further comprising pushing the serialized data from a data source of a data provider to a proxy data storage medium, wherein retrieving serialized data to the data service includes retrieving the serialized data from the proxy data storage medium.

4. The method of claim 1, wherein the data source is available to a query service invoked by a participant in a collaborative information system.

5. The method of claim 4, further comprising invoking the data service through the collaborative information system, wherein retrieving serialized data includes obtaining the serialized data as results of a query of the data service.

6. The method of claim 1, wherein the query service includes a set of queries that are performed together and authorized by the authorization model.

7. The method of claim 1, further comprising modifying, conditionally, authorization of certain services despite having authorized a query set within the query service that includes each of the queries for the service.

8. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more data retention policies are based on an age of the serialized data.

9. The method of claim 1, wherein the one or more data retention policies are based on a location of where the serialized data was captured.

10. The method of claim 1, wherein the resolution recommendation includes an action selected from the group comprising:

always overriding a particular one of the one or more data retention policies in favor of another one of the one or more data retention policies;

providing a superset data retention policy invoking a most restrictive combination of the one or more data retention policies;

providing a default safe data retention policy in lieu of the one or more data retention policies; and

fully restricting the serialized data until a manual fix can be provided.

11. The method of claim 1, wherein:

the one or more data retention policies include a set of rules that are applied to retain the serialized data within a non-transitory medium; and

the set of rules specify a deletion of a certain portion of data stored in a serialized-data data source at a particular date.

12. A non-transitory computer-readable storage medium having computer-readable instructions stored thereon that, if executed by one or more processors, cause the one or more processors to:

retrieve serialized data to a serialized data service;

augment the serialized data with information corresponding to one or more data retention policies to which the serialized data is subject;

enforce the one or more data retention policies upon the serialized data based on the augmented information and specify a correspondence between the one or more data retention policies;

configure a retention policy data taxonomy model to specify a correspondence between the one or more data retention policies and the augmented information; and

configure an authorization model to specify attributes of authorized services involving the data source, wherein the authorization model specifies attributes of authorized services involving the data source, including query services and the data service.

13. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12, wherein the computer-readable instructions to retrieve serialized data to a serialized data service includes computer-readable instructions to retrieve the serialized data from a data source of a data provider.

14. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12, wherein the computer-readable instructions to retrieve serialized data to a serialized data service includes computer-readable instructions to retrieve the serialized data from the proxy data storage medium.

15. The non-transitory computer-readable medium of claim 12, wherein the computer-readable instructions to configure the authorization module includes computer-readable instructions to conditionally modify authorization of certain services among the query services.

16. A computing system, comprising:

a plurality of collaborative information participants interconnected via a communication network, each participant having zero or more data sources;

a computing platform programmed with a number of services including a query service and a serialized data service, the query service using one or more queries operable on authorized portions of participant data sources;

wherein the serialized data service is operable to;

retrieve serialized data from a data source of at least one participant;

configure an authorization model to specify attributes of authorized services involving the data source, wherein the authorization model specifies attributes of authorized services involving the data source, including query services and the data service;

augment the serialized data with information corresponding to one or more data retention policies;

enforce the one or more data retention policies upon the serialized data based on the augmented information; and

configure a retention policy data taxonomy model to specify a correspondence between the one or more data retention policies and the augmented information.

17. The system of claim 16, wherein the data source is available to a query service invoked by a participant in a collaborative information system.

18. The system of claim 16, wherein the query services includes a set of queries that are performed together and authorized by the authorization model subject to a conditional taxonomy.

19. The system of claim 16, wherein the serialized data service is operable to remove the augmented serialized data from the data source based on the augmented information.
