Abstract
A method, system or computer usable program product for managing attributes including obtaining a unique mutable identifier for storage in memory in response to a request to a service provider; utilizing a processor to provide a selected set of attributes to the service provider for association with the unique mutable identifier and storage at the service provider; and providing the unique mutable identifier to an application whereby the application can obtain the set of attributes by inquiring the service provider.
Claims31
A method of managing attributes comprising:
- obtaining a unique mutable identifier for storage in memory in response to a request to a service provider;
- utilizing a processor to provide a selected set of attributes to the service provider for association with the unique mutable identifier and storage at the service provider;
- and
- providing the unique mutable identifier to an application whereby the application can obtain the set of attributes by inquiring the service provider.
A computer usable program product comprising a computer usable storage medium including computer usable code for use in managing attributes, the computer usable program product comprising code for performing the steps of:
- obtaining a unique mutable identifier for storage in memory in response to a request to a service provider;
- utilizing a processor to provide a selected set of attributes to the service provider for association with the unique mutable identifier and storage at the service provider;
- and
- providing the unique mutable identifier to an application whereby the application can obtain the set of attributes by inquiring the service provider.
A data processing system for managing attributes, the data processing system comprising:
- a processor;
- and
- a memory storing program instructions which when executed by the processor execute the steps of:
- obtaining a unique mutable identifier for storage in the memory in response to a request to a service provider;
- utilizing the processor to provide a selected set of attributes to the service provider for association with the unique mutable identifier and storage at the service provider;
- and
- providing the unique mutable identifier to an application whereby the application can obtain the set of attributes by inquiring the service provider.
