Data sharing events
Methods and systems for sharing data among multiple services are described herein. Multiple services may access data from a shared data source. The services may subscribe to data sharing events. A data sharing service may iterate through the shared data source and transmit data retrieved from the shared data source in data sharing events. When the data sharing service reaches the end of the shared data source, the data sharing service may begin iterating through the shared data source again from the beginning. The data sharing events may be transmitted at a predetermined frequency. The services may subscribe to or unsubscribe from the data sharing events.
1. A method comprising:
sending a request to subscribe to data sharing events of a shared data source, wherein the request corresponds to a service;
receiving, in response to the request and at a time interval, each data sharing event of a plurality of data sharing events, wherein the time interval is determined based on a processor performance measurement of the shared data source;
retrieving, from a data sharing event of the plurality of data sharing events, an indication of a user;
storing the indication of the user in a local data source corresponding to the service;
retrieving, from a source external to the service, data corresponding to the user; and
storing the data in the local data source.
2. The method of claim 1 , wherein the indication of the user comprises a username.
3. The method of claim 1 , wherein the local data source is a database maintained by the service.
4. The method of claim 1 , wherein sending the request comprises sending, by the service and using an application programming interface (API), the request.
5. The method of claim 1 , further comprising querying an external database for the data corresponding to the user.
6. The method of claim 1 , wherein the time interval is determined further based on at least one of: processor usage, an amount of available memory, or network usage.
7. The method of claim 1 , wherein the receiving the each data sharing event of the plurality of data sharing events is based on a polling rate indicating a maximum quantity of queries to the shared data source over a specified period of time.
8. One or more non-transitory computer readable storage media storing computer executable instructions that, when executed, configure a system to perform:
sending a request to subscribe to data sharing events of a shared data source, wherein the request corresponds to a service;
receiving, in response to the request and at a time interval, each data sharing event of a plurality of data sharing events, wherein the time interval is determined based on a processor performance measurement of the shared data source;
retrieving, from a data sharing event of the plurality of data sharing events, an indication of a user;
storing the indication of the user in a local data source corresponding to the service;
retrieving, from a source external to the service, data corresponding to the user; and
storing the data in the local data source.
9. The one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 8 , wherein the indication of the user comprises a username.
10. The one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 8 , wherein the local data source is a database maintained by the service.
11. The one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 8 , wherein sending the request comprises sending, by the service and using an application programming interface (API), the request.
12. The one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 8 , further comprising querying an external database for the data corresponding to the user.
13. The one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 8 , wherein the time interval is determined further based on at least one of: processor usage, an amount of available memory, or network usage.
14. The one or more non-transitory computer readable storage media of claim 8 , wherein the instructions, when executed, configure the system to perform the receiving the each data sharing event of the plurality of data sharing events based on a polling rate that indicates a maximum quantity of queries to the shared data source over a specified period of time.
15. A system comprising:
a processor; and
memory storing computer executable instructions that, when executed, configure the system to perform:
sending a request to subscribe to data sharing events of a shared data source, wherein the request corresponds to a service;
receiving, in response to the request and at a time interval, each data sharing event of a plurality of data sharing events, wherein the time interval is determined based on a processor performance measurement of the shared data source;
retrieving, from a data sharing event of the plurality of data sharing events, an indication of a user;
storing the indication of the user in a local data source corresponding to the service;
retrieving, from a source external to the service, data corresponding to the user; and
storing the data in the local data source.
16. The system of claim 15 , wherein the indication of the user comprises a username.
17. The system of claim 15 , wherein the local data source is a database maintained by the service.
18. The system of claim 15 , wherein sending the request comprises sending, by the service and using an application programming interface (API), the request.
19. The system of claim 15 , further comprising querying an external database for the data corresponding to the user.
20. The system of claim 15 , wherein the time interval is determined further based on at least one of: processor usage, an amount of available memory, or network usage.
