Abstract

As the number of applications developed by the organization increases, the computing resource costs for storing and maintaining applications may also increase significantly. The disclosed content claiming system provides a solution to reducing computing resources necessary to maintain and store content that is no longer needed by allowing users to claim ownership over content and confirm whether the content is still in use. For example, in the disclosed content claiming system, a user initiates the process of content claiming by accessing a user interface associated with a content claiming application, wherein the user interface displays a listing of content currently maintained by the organization. The user may then select unclaimed content objects based one or more preferences and provide attestations regarding ownership and usage. Content claiming helps organization make informed decisions regarding continued storage and maintenance of content.

Claims (58)

1 . A method for content claiming, the method comprising:

displaying one or more unclaimed content objects on a user interface of a user electronic computing device associated with a user;

receiving a selection of at least one unclaimed content object of the one or more unclaimed content objects;

receiving a first selection of a selected claiming option from a plurality of claiming options, wherein the plurality of claiming options is related to claiming ownership of the at least one unclaimed content object;

based on the selected claiming option, displaying a request for attestation on the user interface;

receiving the attestation from the user interface;

updating content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object based on the attestation to generate an updated content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object; and

storing the updated content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object in a datastore.

2 . The method of claim 1 , further comprising:

retrieving a plurality of content objects from a content source computing device;

analyzing content data associated with the plurality of content objects to identify claimed content objects and un-claimed content objects within the plurality of content objects; and

storing the claimed content objects in a first database and the un-claimed content objects in a second database within the datastore.

3 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

generating a report regarding at least one or more of the plurality of content objects, the report including metrics related to one or more of: a percentage of content objects within the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects that are claimed, a percentage of content objects within the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects that are un-claimed, a timeline of when the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects were created, a percentage of the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects that have been attested as being needed, and computing resources needed to store the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects.

4 . The method of claim 2 , further comprising:

displaying one or more filter criteria on the user interface;

receiving a second selection of at least one of the one or more filter criteria; and

filtering the claimed content objects and the un-claimed content objects based on the at least one of the one or more filter criteria to generate the one or more unclaimed content objects.

5 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object with includes one or more of: title of the at least one unclaimed content object, a type of the at least one unclaimed content object, a visibility level associated with the at least one unclaimed content object, a claim status of the at least one unclaimed content object, a usage status of the at least one unclaimed content object, a claim identifier associated with the at least one unclaimed content object and a user identifier associated with the at least one unclaimed content object.

6 . The method of claim 1 , wherein the plurality of claiming options includes: a first option to claim ownership and need, a second option to claim ownership and no need, and a third option to un-claim ownership.

7 . The method of claim 6 , wherein when the selected claiming option is the first option or the second option, receiving the attestation includes receiving an application identifier or a support group identifier associated with the user to indicate that the user confirms claim of ownership over the at least one unclaimed content object.

8 . The method of claim 7 , wherein when the selected claiming option is the first option, updating the content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object includes updating the claim status of the at least one unclaimed content object to indicate that the at least one unclaimed content object has been claimed and updating a usage status of the at least one unclaimed content object to indicate that the at least one unclaimed content object is needed.

9 . The method of claim 8 , wherein the at least one unclaimed content object is transferred to a cloud storage.

10 . The method of claim 7 , wherein when the selected claiming option is the second option, updating the content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object includes updating the claim status of the at least one unclaimed content object to indicate that the at least one unclaimed content object has been claimed and updating a usage status of the at least one unclaimed content object to indicate that the at least one unclaimed content object is not needed.

11 . The method of claim 10 , wherein the at least one unclaimed content object is deleted from the datastore.

12 . A system for content claiming, the system comprising:

a processor;

memory comprising instructions that when executed by the processor causes the processor to:

display of one or more unclaimed content objects on a user interface of a user electronic computing device associated with a user;

receive a selection of at least one unclaimed content object of the one or more unclaimed content objects;

receive a first selection of a selected claiming option from a plurality of claiming options, wherein the plurality of claiming options is related to claiming ownership of the at least one unclaimed content object;

based on the selected claiming option, display a request for attestation on the user interface;

receive the attestation from the user interface;

update content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object based on the attestation to generate an updated content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object; and

store the updated content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object in a datastore.

13 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the processor to:

retrieve a plurality of content objects from a content source computing device;

analyze content data associated with the plurality of content objects to identify claimed content objects and un-claimed content objects within the plurality of content objects; and

store the claimed content objects in a first database and the un-claimed content objects in a second database within the datastore.

14 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the processor to:

generate a report regarding at least one or more of the plurality of content objects, the report including metrics related to one or more of: a percentage of content objects within the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects that are claimed, a percentage of content objects within the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects that are un-claimed, a timeline of when the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects were created, a percentage of the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects that have been attested as being needed, and computing resources needed to store the at least one or more of the plurality of content objects.

15 . The system of claim 13 , wherein the instructions, when executed by the processor, further cause the processor to:

display one or more filter criteria on the user interface;

receive a second selection of at least one of the one or more filter criteria; and

filter the claimed content objects and the un-claimed content objects based on the at least one of the one or more filter criteria to generate the one or more unclaimed content objects.

16 . The system of claim 12 , wherein the content data associated with the at least one unclaimed content object with includes one or more of: title of the at least one unclaimed content object, a type of the at least one unclaimed content object, a visibility level associated with the at least one unclaimed content object, a claim status of the at least one unclaimed content object, a usage status of the at least one unclaimed content object, a claim identifier associated with the at least one unclaimed content object and a user identifier associated with the at least one unclaimed content object.
