20110137940 | Methods And Apparatus For Selecting Updates To Associated Records To Publish On An Information Feed In An On-Demand Database Service Environment - Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for selecting updates to associated records to publish on an information feed in an on-demand database service environment. In one embodiment, one or more updates associated with a data record are accessed. The one or more updates are stored in a database. The data record is a parent record, and the one or more updates relate to one or more child records associated with the parent record. The one or more updates are provided as one or more candidates for publication on an information feed associated with the data record, where the information feed is capable of being displayed on a display device. A number of the candidates is selected for publication on the information feed based on one or more criteria. | 06-09-2011 |
20120078917 | Methods And Apparatus For Selecting Updates To Associated Records To Publish On An Information Feed Using Importance Weights In An On-Demand Database Service Environment - Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for selecting updates to associated records to publish on an information feed in an on-demand database service environment. In one embodiment, one or more updates associated with a data record are stored in a database. One or more criteria are applied to the one or more updates to generate an importance weight associated with each update. The one or more importance weights are compared with a designated threshold. When one or more importance weights are identified as meeting or exceeding the designated threshold, the one or more updates associated with the identified one or more importance weights are provided as one or more candidates for publication on an information feed associated with the data record, where the information feed is capable of being displayed on a display device. | 03-29-2012 |
20120078981 | Methods and Apparatus for Suppressing Network Feed Activities Using an Information Feed in an On-Demand Database Service Environment - Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for suppressing network feed activities using an information feed in an on-demand database service environment. In one embodiment, a message is received, including data indicative of a user action. An entity associated with the user action is identified, where the entity is a type of record stored in a database. A type of the entity is identified. It is determined whether the entity type is a prohibited entity type. When the entity type is not a prohibited entity type, the message data is saved to one or more tables in the database. The tables are configured to store feed items of an information feed capable of being displayed on a device. When the entity type is a prohibited entity type, the saving of the message data, to the one or more tables in the database configured to store the feed items, is prohibited. | 03-29-2012 |
20140019459 | Methods And Apparatus For Selecting Updates To Associated Records To Publish On An Information Feed In An On-Demand Database Service Environment - Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for selecting updates to associated records to publish on an information feed in an on-demand database service environment. In one embodiment, one or more updates associated with a data record are stored in a database. One or more criteria are applied to the one or more updates to generate a score associated with each update. The score is compared with a designated threshold. When the score is identified as meeting or exceeding the designated threshold, the one or more updates are provided as one or more candidates for publication on an information feed associated with the data record, where the information feed is capable of being displayed on a display device. | 01-16-2014 |
20140222814 | METHODS AND APPARATUS FOR SUPPRESSING NETWORK FEED ACTIVITIES USING AN INFORMATION FEED IN AN ON-DEMAND DATABASE SERVICE ENVIRONMENT - Disclosed are systems, apparatus, methods, and computer readable media for suppressing network feed activities using an information feed in an on-demand database service environment. In one embodiment, a message is received, including data indicative of a user action. An entity associated with the user action is identified, where the entity is a type of record stored in a database. A type of the entity is identified. It is determined whether the entity type is a prohibited entity type. When the entity type is not a prohibited entity type, the message data is saved to one or more tables in the database. The tables are configured to store feed items of an information feed capable of being displayed on a device. When the entity type is a prohibited entity type, the saving of the message data, to the one or more tables in the database configured to store the feed items, is prohibited. | 08-07-2014 |
