  • Creating Triggers with Trigger-By-Example in Graph Databases
    Creating Triggers with Trigger-By-Example in Graph Databases Kornelije Rabuzin a and Martina Sestakˇ b Faculty of Organization and Informatics, University of Zagreb, Pavlinska 2, 42000 Varazdin,ˇ Croatia Keywords: Trigger-By-Example, Graph Databases, Triggers, Active Databases. Abstract: In recent years, NoSQL graph databases have received an increased interest in the research community. Vari- ous query languages have been developed to enable users to interact with a graph database (e.g. Neo4j), such as Cypher or Gremlin. Although the syntax of graph query languages can be learned, inexperienced users may encounter learning difficulties regardless of their domain knowledge or level of expertise. For this reason, the Query-By-Example approach has been used in relational databases over the years. In this paper, we demon- strate how a variation of this approach, the Trigger-By-Example approach, can be used to define triggers in graph databases, specifically Neo4j, as database mechanisms activated upon a given event. The proposed ap- proach follows the Event-Condition-Action model of active databases, which represents the basis of a trigger. To demonstrate the proposed approach, a special graphical interface has been developed, which enables users to create triggers in a short series of steps. The proposed approach is tested on several sample scenarios. 1 INTRODUCTION Example approach has been introduced to simplify the process of designing database triggers. The The idea of active mechanisms able to react to a spec- approach uses the Query-By-Example (QBE) as a ified event implemented in database systems dates graphical interface for creating triggers (Lee et al., from 1975, when it was first implemented in IBM’s 2000b), and makes the entire trigger design process System R.

Electronic, hyperlinked versions of this dissertation are available online, as Adobe PDF files, at: https://repository.up.ac.za/ Forensic Attribution Challenges During Forensic Examinations Of Databases by Werner Karl Hauger E-mail: [email protected] Abstract An aspect of database forensics that has not yet received much attention in the aca- demic research community is the attribution of actions performed in a database. When forensic attribution is performed for actions executed in computer systems, it is nec- essary to avoid incorrectly attributing actions to processes or actors. This is because the outcome of forensic attribution may be used to determine civil or criminal liabil- ity. Therefore, correctness is extremely important when attributing actions in computer systems, also when performing forensic attribution in databases. Any circumstances that can compromise the correctness of the attribution results need to be identified and addressed. This dissertation explores possible challenges when performing forensic attribution in databases. What can prevent the correct attribution of actions performed in a database? The first identified challenge is the database trigger, which has not yet been studied in the context of forensic examinations. Therefore, the dissertation investigates the impact of database triggers on forensic examinations by examining two sub questions.

  • HVR a Practical Approach to Real-Time Replication for Analytics 100915
    SOLUTION BRIEF A PRACTICAL APPROACH TO REAL-TIME REPLICATION FOR ANALYTICS GROWING DEMAND FOR REAL-TIME INSIGHT In today’s world of real-time ride sharing, traic monitoring, weather forecasting, inventory control, and dynamic pricing, it’s not surprising that expectations are rising for more current business information. The acceptability of batch-oriented daily data warehouse reports is rapidly diminishing. Businesses and government entities are increasingly relying on real time analytics to optimize customer service, marketing campaigns, logistics, inventory, cash flow, human capital and public safety. In financial services and other industries, analytics are being embedded into business processes to reduce fraud and operational risk. The following examples are illustrative of the wide range of applications that cross industries and geographies. Luhansa delivers real-time flight planning services to a great number of national and international airlines around the word. The system populates hundreds of databases distributed across diverse "The impact of integrating real-time geographical locations with massive volumes of continuously changing data pertaining to routes, analytics with business operations is flight paths, air traic, flight restrictions, weather conditions and more. Airline operations teams and immediately apparent to business pilots receive updated, in-flight information needed to adjust schedules, routes, and flight patterns. people because it changes the way they do their jobs…" The U.S. Coast Guard has deployed a real-time data warehouse that continuously replicates data from its Aviation Logistics and Maintenance Information System.
