A cloud enablement aggregation proxy (CEAP) receives and processes audit data from audited resources before such data is stored in a database. The CEAP manages log data for resources hosted in a multi-tenant shared pool of configurable computing resources (e.g., a compute cloud). A method for managing log data begins by the proxy aggregating and normalizing log information received from a plurality of the resources. The aggregated and normalized log information is then parsed to identify a tenant associated with each of a set of transactions. For each of the set of transactions, the CEAP annotates log data associated with the tenant and the particular transaction to include a tenant-specific identifier. An optional tenant separation proxy (TSP) separates the annotated log data on a per tenant basis prior to storage, and the tenant-specific log data may be stored in per tenant data structures or dedicated tenant log event databases to facilitate subsequent compliance or other analysis.

A data management system or “DMS” provides a wide range of data services to data sources associated with a set of application host servers. The data management system typically comprises one or more regions, with each region having one or more clusters. A given cluster has one or more nodes that share storage. To facilitate the data service, a host driver embedded in an application server connects an application and its data to a cluster. The host driver provides a method and apparatus for capturing real-time data modifications and application state notifications and, in response, generating data transactions in the form of an event journal that is provided to the data management system. The driver functions to translate traditional file / database / block I / O into a continuous, application-aware, output data stream. Using the streams generated in this manner, the DMS offers a wide range of data services that include, by way of example only: data protection (and recovery), and disaster recovery (data distribution and data replication).

Systems, methods and apparatus for personal identity data management permit individuals to manage their criminal background, credit history, employment, demographic and educational information, for example, to establish their credentials and to help protect their good names. All access to this personal identity data, including the biometrics that uniquely establish the individuals' identity, is under the personal control of the individuals, with access limited to others only with their specific authorization.

A data management system for generating customized versions of data documents. Initially the document is stored as in the form of raw data, which is subsequently parsed into an internal representation of the document. In one embodiment, raw data is stored in XML form and is parsed by an XML parser. Upon the initial request for a customized version of the document, a sequence of transforms is applied to the internal representation and to subsequently transformed documents in order to create hierarchical, customized document levels. In one embodiment, transforms are implemented as either XSL stylesheets, although Java classes may also be employed. The document versions are written to cache, and subsequent requests for existing versions of the document are referred to cache. In the event that any document dependencies change, a cached version will be denoted invalid, and subsequent requests will result in the re-generation of a customized version. The data management system is implemented in the form of a document manager, a database that includes a document table and a transform table.
