Asset data model for recurring revenue asset management
First Claim
1. A computer program product comprising a non-transitory machine-readable medium storing instructions that, when executed by one or more programmable processors, cause the one or more programmable processors to perform operations comprising:
- mapping a unit of data received from an external data source at a recurring revenue management system implemented on the one or more programmable processors, the mapping comprising integrating an inbound record type of the received unit of data to one of a set of predefined data object types supporting functions of the recurring revenue management system, the integrating comprising;
combining, by the one or more programmable processors, the received unit of data from an integration as a service (IaaS) provider or a service bus with an instance of one of the set of predefined data objects at a top layer of a data ingestion pipeline by populating an extension field of the instance of the one of the set of predefined data objects with the received unit of data, the set of predefined data objects supporting extension by the addition of a second extension field to any of the predefined data objects;
generating electronic data representing an opportunity for a sale or renewal of a recurring revenue asset based at least on a relationship or an inverse relationship between the extended data object and at least one of the set of predefined data objects, the generating comprising;
identifying a relationship between the extended data object and the at least one of the set of predefined data objects; and
automatically instantiating an inverse relationships between the extended data object and the at least one of the set of predefined data objects based at least on a transitivity analysis of the identified relationship, the instantiation automatically executed by the one or more programmable processors in response to the identifying of the relationship; and
providing user interface data to a client machine for presenting the electronic data to a user via a user interface shown on a display device of the client machine.

Abstract
Data relevant to a predefined data object of a set of predefined data objects can be extracted from a unit of date received at a recurring revenue management system. The extracted relevant data can be populated to an instance of the predefined data object. One or more relationships between the instance of the predefined data object and at least one other instance of the predefined data object or a second predefined data object. The defining occurs based on a set of parameters associated with the predefined data object and content of the extracted data. An opportunity can be generated for a sale or renewal of a recurring revenue asset based at least in part on the one or more relationships, and the generated opportunity can be presented to a user. Related methods, systems, and computer program products are also described.
