Abstract

An embodiment of the invention includes a system for partitioning asset management plugins. The system includes an application program interface for performing basic CRUD functions on assets having multiple asset types. At least one plugin having plugin components is provided, wherein the plugin manages at least one asset having a specific asset type (of the multiple asset types). The plugin components include a CRUD component, a state component, an actions component, and/or a view component. The system further includes plugin containers for hosting the plugin components, the plugin containers include at least one client-side plugin container and at least one server-side plugin container. The plugin components are partitioned and distributed from the plugin components to the plugin containers by a plugin server based on capabilities of the client.
