Publish and subscribe capable continuous query processor for real-time data streams

摘要

A Continuous Query Processor processes queries on continuously updating data sources or data streams and includes a Publication Manager for accepting published structured elements of data from data stream Publishers, a Subscription Manager for giving structured elements of data to one or more data stream Subscribers, a Query Module Manager for processing queries represented by Query Modules, a Query Module Store for maintaining deployed Query Modules, a Query Primitive Manager performing processing for various primitives that comprise a Query Module, and a Schedule Manager for coordinating when a primitive within a Query Module gets processed in order to maintain that each continuous query is continuously updated immediately upon the arrival of structured element data affecting any part of a continuous query.
