  • Distributed Complex Event Processing in Multiclouds
    Distributed Complex Event Processing in Multiclouds Vassilis Stefanidis1, Yiannis Verginadis1, Ioannis Patiniotakis1 and Gregoris Mentzas1 1 Institute of Communications and Computer Systems, National Technical University of Ath- ens, Greece {stefanidis, jverg, ipatini, gmentzas}@mail.ntua.gr Abstract. The last few years, the generation of vast amounts of heterogeneous data with different velocity and veracity and the requirement to process them, has significantly challenged the computational capacity and efficiency of the modern infrastructural resources. The propagation of Big Data among different pro- cessing and storage architectures, has amplified the need for adequate and cost- efficient infrastructures to host them. An overabundance of cloud service offer- ings is currently available and is being rapidly adopted by small and medium enterprises based on its many benefits to traditional computing models. However, at the same time the Big Data computing requirements pose new research chal- lenges that question the adoption of single cloud provider resources. Nowadays, we discuss the emerging data-intensive applications that necessitate the wide adoption of multicloud deployment models, in order to use all the advantages of cloud computing. A key tool for managing such multicloud applications and guarantying their quality of service, even in extreme scenarios of workload fluc- tuations, are adequate distributed monitoring mechanisms. In this work, we dis- cuss a distributed complex event processing architecture that follows automati- cally the big data application deployment in order to efficiently monitor its health status and detect reconfiguration opportunities. This proposal is examined against an illustrative scenario and is preliminary evaluated for revealing its performance results. Keywords: Distributed CEP, Cloud Monitoring, Multiclouds, Big Data.

ADBC PAM-10573 : Some supported databases store empty strings as NULL (since 5.3.0.0) ================================================================================ Some databases such as Oracle are known to store empty strings as NULL values, which can lead to confusion when executing queries where a field is compared to the empty string. For example: select * from table where field = "" Would not match rows where the field was null for such databases. To ensure the desired results are returned when running queries against databases that store empty strings as null, we recommend queries to be written to check for NULL instead of empty string literals. However, despite this limitation in the underlying database, the supplied ODBC driver for Oracle includes special logic to allow queries to use empty strings (though this does not apply to the supplied JDBC driver, or to most other 3rd party Oracle drivers). PAM-21466 : Bundled Oracle JDBC driver can incorrectly report Oracle Advanced Security errors (since 5.2.0.0) ================================================================================ Even when Oracle Advanced Security is not turned on for the server, the following error can occur during connect: [Oracle JDBC Driver]The connect attempt failed because the server requires Oracle Advanced Security.

  • A Complex Event Processing Engine Based on Data Stream
    ReCEPtor: Sensing Complex Events in Data Streams for Service-Oriented Architectures Mingzhu Wei, Ismail Ari, Jun Li, Mohamed Dekhil Digital Printing and Imaging Laboratory HP Laboratories Palo Alto HPL-2007-176 November 2, 2007* data stream, complex All mission-critical applications read or generate raw data streams and require event processing, real-time processing of these streams to collect statistics, control flow and detect SOA, query plan, abnormal patterns. A trend which has gained strong momentum in different EPL industry sectors is the use of Complex Event Processing (CEP) over streams for all critical business processes, thus pushing its span beyond military and financial applications. A parallel trend has been the re-architecting of existing business processes with Service Oriented Architecture (SOA) principals to provide integration and interoperability. This requires use of middleware that incorporates web services, Business Process Management (BPM) systems or an Enterprise Service Bus (ESB), and in some cases Business Rule Engines (BRE). There is a gap between the new generation of business processes which desperately need CEP and the proposed CEP engines that were not built with SOA in mind. These engines either don’t support the flexible, dynamic and distributed business applications deployed in SOA or they try to merge the middleware with the CEP engine as one big proprietary package. This paper describes the design and implementation of our CEP engine called ReCEPtor, which can sense complex events in data streams in real-time. Our modular architecture describes how to integrate ReCEPtor with different business applications in different platforms either directly or by using an off-the-shelf BPM system and a platform adapter.

    Darko Anicic Event Processing and Stream Reasoning with ETALIS Zur Erlangung des akademischen Grades eines Doktors der Wirtschaftswissenschaften (Dr. rer. pol.) von der Fakultät für Wirtschaftswissenschaften des Karlsruher Instituts für Technologie (KIT) genehmigte Dissertation. Event Processing and Stream Reasoning with ETALIS Dipl.-Ing. Darko Aniciˇ c´ Referent: Prof. Dr. Rudi Studer Korreferent: Prof. Dr. Opher Etzion Prüfer: Prof. Dr. Detlef Seese Vorsitzender der Prüfungskommission: Prof. Dr. Andreas Geyer-Schulz Tag der mündlichen Prüfung: 09. November 2011. Institut für Angewandte Informatik und Formale Beschreibungsverfahren (AIFB) Fakultät Wirtschaftswissenschaften Karlsruher Institut für Technologie (KIT) Karlsruhe 2011 i To Vedrana and Andre Abstract Event Processing (EP) is concerned with detection of situations under time constraints that are of a particular business interest. We face today a paradigm shift toward the real time information processing, and EP has therefore spawned significant attention in science and technology. Due to omnipresence of events, EP is becoming a central as- pect of new distributed systems such as cloud computing and grid systems, mobile and sensor-based systems, as well as a number of application areas including financial ser- vices, business intelligence, social and collaborative networking, click stream analysis and many others. However, there are a number of issues to be considered in order to enable effective event-based computation. A language for describing event patterns needs to feature a well-defined semantics. It also needs to be rich enough to express important classes of event patterns. Pattern matching should be supported in both, query-driven and event- driven modes. A number of other event operations, such as event aggregation, filtering, translation, enrichment and splitting, should be supported too.

The proposed framework aims at enabling business users to express complex analytics tasks through a high-level declarative language that supports distributed complex event processing as an integral part of the system architecture. Work package 4 “Flexible Event Processing” deals with all the developments around event processing technologies in order to achieve this goal. In order to be flexible, event processing engines need to tackle the two following requirements in a satisfactory way: • The easy adaptability to non-functional requirements, specially, the way the tool copes with scalability issues in a distributed environment. • The easy definition and maintenance of the event-driven logic. The task of work package 4 is to provide a model and methodology to cope with these limitations.

Abstract The rise of mobile technologies and the Internet of Things, combined with advances in Web technologies, have created a new Big Data world in which the volume and velocity of data gen- eration have achieved an unprecedented scale. As a technology created to process continuous streams of data, Complex Event Processing (CEP) has been often related to Big Data and used as a tool to obtain real-time insights. However, despite this recent surge of interest, the CEP market is still dominated by solutions that are costly and inflexible or too low-level and hard to operate. To address these problems, this research proposes the creation of a CEP system that can be o↵ered as a service and used over the Internet.
