ADDITION AND PROCESSING OF CONTINUOUS SQL QUERIES IN A STREAMING RELATIONAL DATABASE MANAGEMENT SYSTEM

摘要

Systems, methods, and media are disclosed herein that can be embodied in a traditional Relational Database Management System (RDBMS) in order to transform it into a Streaming Relational Database Management System (SRDBMS). An SRDBMS may provide functionality such as to manage and populate streams, tables, and archived stream histories and support the evaluation of continuous queries on streams and tables. Both continuous and snapshot queries support the full spectrum of the industry standard, widely used, Structured Query Language. The present technology can support a high number of concurrent continuous queries using a scalable and efficient shared query evaluation scheme, support on-the-fly addition of continuous queries into a mechanism that implements the shared evaluation scheme, reuse RDBMS modules such as relational operators and expression evaluators, and visualize results of continuous queries in real time
