Abstract
A technique for distributed management of attributes includes propagating attributes based upon attribute-granularity permissions. An example of a system according to the technique may include a server, coupled to a first client and a second client, that includes a module that receives attribute data from the first client; a permissions database where first permissions associated with the first client are set at the individual attribute level for the second client; an engine for updating the permissions database and for validating the first permissions for the second client; and an engine for distributing first client updates based on validated permissions to destinations associated with the one or more second destination stores.
Claims10
A method, comprising:
- maintaining first attributes associated with a first entity of a plurality of entities and second attributes associated with a second entity of the plurality of entities;
- linking the first entity with a second entity;
- providing a first destination, associated with the first entity, for the second attributes;
- granting first permissions for the first attributes to the second entity;
- facilitating propagation of shared attributes of the first attributes and the second attributes to the first destination and a second destination associated with the second entity through the first permissions and second permissions for the second attributes to the first entity;
- managing subsequent changes of attributes to create a syndicated distributed secure data exchange.
A system, comprising:
- means for maintaining first attributes associated with a first entity of a plurality of entities and second attributes associated with a second entity of the plurality of entities;
- means for linking the first entity with a second entity;
- means for providing a first destination, associated with the first entity, for the second attributes;
- means for granting first permissions for the first attributes to the second entity;
- means for facilitating propagation of shared attributes of the first attributes and the second attributes to the first destination and a second destination associated with the second entity through the first permissions and second permissions for the second attributes to the first entity;
- means for managing subsequent changes of attributes to create a syndicated distributed secure data exchange.
