Abstract

A method for publishing the web sites on remote server using shared hosting in cases of unexpected server timeouts. A list of elements (work items) to be published is generated. The list is sorted out according to dependencies of elements from one another. Then, the work items are sorted out by the priority. The work item from the top of the list (with the highest priority) is processed first. After the work is performed with this work item, the work item is marked as closed if the process has executed successfully. Then, the process moves to the next work item and so on. The process has a library of the work items. Thus, in case of a server timeout, the process knows exactly which work items have been processed prior to the timeout and can start the processing from the next work item.

Claims (44)

1. A system for executing tasks in a shared hosting infrastructure, the system comprising:

a processor and a memory coupled to the processor;

computer code loaded into the memory and executing on the processor to perform the following:

a client receiving data from a server through Internet protocol;

a plurality of scripts residing on the client, the plurality of scripts used in task formation and configured for sending scripts to a script execution engine residing on the server;

a script parsing engine configured to parse the scripts and divide the scripts into sub-scripts;

wherein:

the script execution engine limits execution time for each script and sub-script;

the script parsing engine is configured to order the scripts based on a dependency of the scripts from each other; and

the script parsing engine is configured to divide the sub-script into micro-scripts, if the execution time of the sub-script exceeds a time limit.

2. The system of claim 1 , wherein the dividing scripts into sub-scripts is performed after a predefined number of unsuccessful attempts of script executions.

3. The system of claim 1 , wherein the script parsing engine runs on the server.

4. The system of claim 1 , wherein the script parsing engine is configured to send a sub-scripts' execution status to the client.

5. The system of claim 4 , further comprising showing a script execution progress bar to a user.

6. The system of claim 1 , wherein the task is any of:

publishing the client's web-site;

a backup of a web site;

a restoration of a web site from a snapshot;

an upgrade of a web site;

an import of a web site; and

generation of a web site content.

7. The system of claim 1 , wherein the client receives a number of unsuccessful attempts of script executions set by the server.

8. The system of claim 1 , wherein execution of the sub-scripts starts before a complete execution of the sub-scripts with a higher priority.

9. The system of claim 1 , wherein the scripts are stored in a script library residing on the client.

10. A system for executing tasks in a shared hosting infrastructure, the system comprising:

a processor and a memory coupled to the processor;

computer code loaded into the memory and executing on the processor to perform the following:

a client receiving data from a server;

at least one script residing on the client and used in task formation,

the client configured for sending scripts to an execution engine residing on the server;

a parsing engine configured to parse the scripts and divide the scripts into sub-scripts;

wherein:

the execution engine limits execution time for each script and sub-script;

the parsing engine orders the scripts based on a dependency of the scripts from each other; and

the parsing engine divides the sub-script into smaller units, if the execution time of the sub-script exceeds a time limit.

11. A method for executing tasks in a shared hosting infrastructure, the method comprising:

on a computer having a processor and a memory, executing computer code on the processor to perform the following:

receiving data on a client from a server;

configuring the client for sending scripts to an execution engine residing on the server; and

configuring a parsing engine to parse the scripts and divide the scripts into sub-scripts;

wherein:

the execution engine limits execution time for each script and sub-script;

the parsing engine orders the scripts based on a dependency of the scripts from each other; and

the parsing engine divides the sub-script into smaller units, if the execution time of the sub-script exceeds a time limit.
