Abstract
The claimed subject matter provides a system and/or a method that facilitates managing data within an environment. An interface component can receive a role-based model reflective of at least one position within an environment, wherein the environment includes two or more entities within an organized hierarchy. The role-based model can include at least one role assigned to an entity in which the assignment is indicative of the position of the entity within the environment. A role component can provide data access to the entity within the environment in accordance with the role assigned to such entity.
Claims20
A system that facilitates managing data within an environment, comprising:
- an interface component that receives a role-based model reflective of at least one position within an environment, the environment includes two or more entities within an organized hierarchy;
- the role-based model includes at least one role assigned to an entity, the assignment is indicative of the position of the entity within the environment ;
- and
- a role component that provides data access to the entity within the environment in accordance with the role assigned to such entity.
A computer-implemented method that facilitates distributing data within an environment in a uniform matter, comprising:
- evaluating an environment to identify a subset of entities defining a role for the subset of entities with a respective right;
- and
- providing data access based at least in part upon the defined role for the entities.
A computer-implemented system that facilitates enhancing data distribution, comprising:
- means for receiving a role-based model reflective of at least one position within an environment, the environment includes two or more entities within an organized hierarchy;
- means for including at least one role assigned to an entity within the role-based model, the assignment is indicative of the position of the entity within the environment;
- and
- means for providing data access to the entity within the environment in accordance with the role assigned to such entity.
