ACCESS CONTROLS FOR A DEDICATED DATABASE SYSTEM STORING USER-GENERATED CONTENT INPUT TO A MULTITENANT SERVICE OF A COLLABORATIVE WORK ENVIRONMENT

Abstract:

A dedicated database system for storing user-generated content created when interacting with an environment defined by a software service. An access control system provides the software service with surrogate keys only and stores an association between surrogate keys and user-generated content in the dedicated database system. Upon receiving a request for user-generated content, the software service returns a surrogate key which can be translated into associated user-generated content by the dedicated database system.
