Generic query templates for complex event processing and data stream systems

摘要

Systems and methods provide for queries with an arbitrary number of input streams to be created from a generic query template, during runtime, based on, for example, configuration parameters provided by the system or a user. The generic query templates include a generic query template string, query template segments, and an orchestration mechanism for automatic query template generation. The systems and methods of the present invention provide for the substitution of concrete input streams, counters (e.g., stream indices) and query template segments (which can include further placeholders) into the generic query templates. Further, the input placeholders of the generic query template provide for any part of the query template to be substituted with arbitrary logic. Also, the orchestration process is query language independent and can be applied (and extended) for any query language.
