ABSTRACT:
Systems and methods for managing digital assets in a distributed computing environment are described. Meta-data for the digital assets is stored separately from the digital assets. Meta-data for some of the digital assets is copied and stored at a central location. Meta-data for the digital assets is generated by clients of the system. A method of filtering I/O requests of a computer system includes: receiving a plurality of I/O requests from a filter manager of the computer system, the filter manager executing in the system space of an operating system; applying a hierarchical rule set to at least a portion of the plurality of I/O requests by a mini-filter executing in the system space; and providing at least one of the plurality of I/O requests from the mini-filter to an agent executing in user space in response to the application of the hierarchical rule set by the mini-filter.
