1. A method for licensing an application using sync providers, comprising:
receiving a request for a license for an application from a client sync provider at a licensing service; receiving information relating to the license from a commerce partner offering the application via a commerce partner sync provider, wherein the commerce partner sync provider is an abstraction layer that exposes an application programming interface (API) of the licensing service to the commerce partner without enabling the commerce partner access to a provisioning layer of the licensing service; returning the license for the application to a client computing device if the application has a licensing service signature that matches to the commerce partner, wherein the license comprises device specific information associated with the client computing device; receiving information relating to a state of the license from the client sync provider; and adjusting a condition of the license according to the state of the license. |
