16. A process for transforming a user access request for cloud digital content into a computer readable authorization object, the process for transforming comprising:
-
a) receiving an access request for cloud digital content through an apparatus in process with at least one CPU, the access request being a write request to a data store, wherein the data store is at least one of; a memory connected to the at least one CPU; a storage connected to the at least one CPU; and a database connected to the at least one CPU through the Internet;
whereinthe access request further comprises verification data provided by at least one user, wherein the verification data is recognized by the apparatus as a verification token;
thenb) authenticating the verification token of (a) using a database recognized by the apparatus of (a) as a verification token database;
thenc) establishing an API communication between the apparatus of (a) and a database apparatus, the database apparatus being a different database from the verification token database of (b), wherein establishing the API communication requires a credential assigned to the apparatus of (a), wherein the apparatus assigned credential is recognized as a permission to conduct a data exchange session between the apparatus of (a) and the database apparatus, the data exchange session capable of an exchange of query data;
thend) requesting the query data from the API communication data exchange session of (c), wherein the query data comprises at least one of; a reference; an ID; and an identifier;
thene) receiving the query data requested in (d) from the API communication data exchange session of (c);
thenf) creating a computer readable authorization object by writing into the data store of (a) at least one of; the received verification token of (a); and the received query data of (e);
whereinthe created computer readable authorization object is recognized by the apparatus of (a) as user access rights associated to the cloud digital content, wherein the computer readable authorization object is available for processing by a plurality of CPUs using a cross-referencing action to determine a user access permission to the associated cloud digital content.
