Towards Analytics Aware Ontology Based Access to Static and Streaming Data (Extended Version)
Real-time analytics that requires integration and aggregation of
heterogeneous and distributed streaming and static data is a typical task in
many industrial scenarios such as diagnostics of turbines in Siemens. OBDA
approach has a great potential to facilitate such tasks; however, it has a
number of limitations in dealing with analytics that restrict its use in
important industrial applications. Based on our experience with Siemens, we
argue that in order to overcome those limitations OBDA should be extended and
become analytics, source, and cost aware. In this work we propose such an
extension. In particular, we propose an ontology, mapping, and query language
for OBDA, where aggregate and other analytical functions are first class
citizens. Moreover, we develop query optimisation techniques that allow to
efficiently process analytical tasks over static and streaming data. We
implement our approach in a system and evaluate our system with Siemens turbine
data
Scalable Model-Based Management of Correlated Dimensional Time Series in ModelarDB+
To monitor critical infrastructure, high quality sensors sampled at a high
frequency are increasingly used. However, as they produce huge amounts of data,
only simple aggregates are stored. This removes outliers and fluctuations that
could indicate problems. As a remedy, we present a model-based approach for
managing time series with dimensions that exploits correlation in and among
time series. Specifically, we propose compressing groups of correlated time
series using an extensible set of model types within a user-defined error bound
(possibly zero). We name this new category of model-based compression methods
for time series Multi-Model Group Compression (MMGC). We present the first MMGC
method GOLEMM and extend model types to compress time series groups. We propose
primitives for users to effectively define groups for differently sized data
sets, and based on these, an automated grouping method using only the time
series dimensions. We propose algorithms for executing simple and
multi-dimensional aggregate queries on models. Last, we implement our methods
in the Time Series Management System (TSMS) ModelarDB (ModelarDB+). Our
evaluation shows that compared to widely used formats, ModelarDB+ provides up
to 13.7 times faster ingestion due to high compression, 113 times better
compression due to the adaptivity of GOLEMM, 630 times faster aggregates by
using models, and close to linear scalability. It is also extensible and
supports online query processing.Comment: 12 Pages, 28 Figures, and 1 Tabl
Rewriting Complex Queries from Cloud to Fog under Capability Constraints to Protect the Users' Privacy
In this paper we show how existing query rewriting and query containment techniques can be used to achieve an efficient and privacy-aware processing of queries. To achieve this, the whole network structure, from data producing sensors up to cloud computers, is utilized to create a database machine consisting of billions of devices from the Internet of Things. Based on previous research in the field of database theory, especially query rewriting, we present a concept to split a query into fragment and remainder queries. Fragment queries can operate on resource limited devices to filter and preaggregate data. Remainder queries take these data and execute the last, complex part of the original queries on more powerful devices. As a result, less data is processed and forwarded in the network and the privacy principle of data minimization is accomplished
Query optimization by using derivability in a data warehouse environment
Materialized summary tables and cached query results are frequently used for the optimization of aggregate queries in a data warehouse. Query rewriting techniques are incorporated into database systems to use those materialized views and thus avoid the access of the possibly huge raw data. A rewriting is only possible if the query is derivable from these views. Several approaches can be found in the literature to check the derivability and find query rewritings. The specific application scenario of a data warehouse with its multidimensional perspective allows the consideration of much more semantic information, e.g. structural dependencies within the dimension hierarchies and different characteristics of measures. The motivation of this article is to use this information to present conditions for derivability in a large number of relevant cases which go beyond previous approaches
