I have a mining app on the google store, but it doesn't run any actual mining scripts on the user's devices, it just rewards the users and monetizes itself through ads, does that poses a problem with the latest google's policy prohibiting mining apps ?

When a user buys a subscription on CH Play, can I use the server to verify and then update the subscription on the iOS App side and vice versa?
However, Apple has a policy stating that: Guideline 3.1.1 - Business - Payments - In-App Purchase - Your app unlocks or enables additional functionality with mechanisms other than the App Store, which is not appropriate for the App Store.
That means the user has to buy again.
So How should I do mobile app cross platform payment?
Should I create a lot of offer codes?
Or refunding the user after buying twice is still a solution?
That means the user has to buy again.
No, you can buy subscription from Android or web and when you login into your account on iOS device you will find your subscription active. this is do not violate Apple's Guidelines (e.g. Spotify is doing this)
You should handle the subscription from server side to verify if the subscription paid on the original platform.
UPDATE:
3.1.3(b) Multiplatform Services: Apps that operate across multiple platforms may allow users to access content, subscriptions, or features they have acquired in your app on other platforms or your web site, including consumable items in multi-platform games, provided those items are also available as in-app purchases within the app.
By definition (Wikipedia) - A tenant is a group of users who share a common access with specific privileges to the software instance and the term "software multi-tenancy" refers to a software architecture in which a single instance of software runs on a server and serves multiple tenants. It also states that with a multi-tenant architecture, a software application is designed to provide every tenant a dedicated share of the instance - including its data, configuration, user management, tenant individual functionality and non-functional properties.
From the definition, I understand that multi-tenancy says more from an architecture perspective and in case of Google drive, the internal architecture may not be known. However from a user/usage view, can we call Google drive or similar cloud applications as perfect examples for multi-tenancy since these are able to serve multiple customers and even allows us to share data among users securely? If so, will it be correct in saying that any software or application with a single instance allowing multiple users and gives data isolation, called as multi-tenant applications (from a user perspective)?
Note - I have already gone through the following post which states the difference between multi-user and multi-tenancy, however most of the cloud application share same database and servers and so can we call them multi-tenant? - http://multi-tenancy.blogspot.com/2009/07/what-does-this-mean-part-i.html
Multi-user example:
userX#domain1.com uses Google Drive
userY#domain1.com uses Google Drive
Multi-tenant example:
userX#domain1.com uses Google Drive
userY#domain2.com uses Google Drive
A multi-user system need not necessarily mean it's a multi-tenant system.
As you mentioned, we may not know the internal architecture of Google Drive, but from a user's view, it can be considered as a multi-tenant application as users from multiple domains/business entities/companies (i.e., userX#company1.com and userY#company2.com) access the same application using Google's enterprise solutions. Each of those domains/companies can be considered as tenants of Google Drive.
Google Drive is an excellent example of a multi-tenant application when several users have access to one cloud drive and can have access to this drive. For example, to perform some kind of teamwork. In this case, each user of Google Drive will be a tenant. The work with Google Drive's documents has a similar logic. Few users that have access to documents can jointly use them.
We build a rails 4 site and use ES for our search travel/accommodation engine. We created a separate ES index for clickstream data, and we store data for non-login(session_id) and login users (user_id). We use the stored data now to show viewed and favorites accommodations on the site.
Now i want based on a click analysis to cluster a visitor (non and login) in a specified cluster. A cluster can be "budget", "Couple", "Family" ect.
These clusters i want to "feed" with the user/session id profiles so i can use it to personalize our channels as site and email.
Can someone guide me. How can we create "rules" so we can assign profiles to a cluster?
Thanks..remco
I suggest you talk to ActionML We have several pieces of software that could apply like our Page Variant Recommender, which will learn from user responses which variant of a page or email works better for certain user profile or segment info. We have the state-of-the-art Universal Recommender which can ingest user clickstream info to make recommendations. All this is build on the PredictionIO Machine Learning Framework, which in turn supports a large number of algorithm plug-ins that can be applied to classification (supervised categorization) or clustering (unsupervized categorization) of users and many other use cases.
ActionML does contract consulting and tries to answer questions about their open source Apache 2 licensed software on the PredictionIO Google Group.
We are working on new requirement where we need to enable features based on contract with the client. It`s a Saas based software and support multi tenancy. The software by default have basic features enabled.
Basic features
Customer management
Basic billing/invoicing
Notification via email
Payments
Advance feature
Notification over SMS
Workflow
Etc
All the client serviced by same software (Obviously same deployment ) but data will be stored on different database schema.
How to handle basic, advanced, add on, and pro feature in this case?
We are using spring and hibernate.
AFAIK, you should be handling these internally in your application so that the features like notification, workflow are marked as application features and for each tenant, there will be a mapping between the tenant id and the feature so that the tenant has access only to the features that he is subscribed to.
So, when a tenant or his user logs in to the system, we identify the features and the contents that he can access and then show them to the user. This is called as a tenant licensing system.
Also, whenever a feature is consumed, your code should be recording the tenant that consumed that feature and by how much and when and there can be cost associated with units of usage measurements.
For more detailed discussion, please refer here
Though these are all explained in C#, there should be no hinderance in the conceptual understanding.
I'm looking for ideas / open source frameworks to use for creating individual Analytics for user profiles and all the other profile types. Users will have different custom metrics, businesses willl have seperate metrics, the admin section will have seperate, Advertises will have seperate, etc. So basically the goal is to have 1 framework in place for all Analytics, which will be custom user to user and even use that for the system analytic needs also. It will include data analytics as there will be user ratings/reviews to perfomr data mining on for businesses, USers will have basic reporting on their needs (like friend demographics, filter by different preferences, etc).
System is being developed in cakePhp.
Thanks.
Check out myDBR reporting tool. With myDBR you can easily create reports and include them into your application. myDBR is also written in PHP and can easily be integrated into any existing web-application via Single-Sign On authentication.
