Abstract

An online system enables content providers to efficiently create and publish sponsored content in multiple phases. Each phase of the content creation is represented by a draft of the content. Multiple drafts of the content are stored in a repository of the online system for optimizing content delivery and publication, such as quick identification of conflicts in a draft based on analysis of draft fragments of the draft. Objects associated with the sponsored content are stored in an object model, including a key-value table. The connections amongst the various draft segments of a draft are stored in a hierarchy structure, e.g., a tree structure. Each user associated with a draft has a role, such as an owner or a collaborator, where all of the roles can contribute to the draft. The online system efficiently publishes the drafts of the sponsored content and presents the sponsored content to its target users.
