Compilador de consultas tipo SQL para sistema de procesamiento masivo de eventos CEP

El paradigma de procesamiento de eventos CEP plantea la solución al reto del análisis de grandes cantidades de datos en tiempo real, como por ejemplo, monitorización de los valores de bolsa o el estado del tráfico de carreteras. En este paradigma los eventos recibidos deben procesarse sin almacenarse debido a que el volumen de datos es demasiado elevado y a las necesidades de baja latencia. Para ello se utilizan sistemas distribuidos con una alta escalabilidad, elevado throughput y baja latencia. Este tipo de sistemas son usualmente complejos y el tiempo de aprendizaje requerido para su uso es elevado. Sin embargo, muchos de estos sistemas carecen de un lenguaje declarativo de consultas en el que expresar la computación que se desea realizar sobre los eventos recibidos. En este trabajo se ha desarrollado un lenguaje declarativo de consultas similar a SQL y un compilador que realiza la traducción de este lenguaje al lenguaje nativo del sistema de procesamiento masivo de eventos. El lenguaje desarrollado en este trabajo es similar a SQL, con el que se encuentran familiarizados un gran número de desarrolladores y por tanto aprender este lenguaje no supondría un gran esfuerzo. Así el uso de este lenguaje logra reducir los errores en ejecución de la consulta desplegada sobre el sistema distribuido al tiempo que se abstrae al programador de los detalles de este sistema.---ABSTRACT---The complex event processing paradigm CEP has become the solution for high volume data analytics which demand scalability, high throughput, and low latency. Examples of applications which use this paradigm are financial processing or traffic monitoring. A distributed system is used to achieve the performance requisites. These same requisites force the distributed system not to store the events but to process them on the fly as they are received. These distributed systems are complex systems which require a considerably long time to learn and use. The majority of such distributed systems lack a declarative language in which to express the computation to perform over incoming events. In this work, a new SQL-like declarative language and a compiler have been developed. This compiler translates this new language to the distributed system native language. Due to its similarity with SQL a vast amount of developers who are already familiar with SQL will need little time to learn this language. Thus, this language reduces the execution failures at the time the programmer no longer needs to know every single detail of the underlying distributed system to submit a query.

Transacciones en SQL Server

Una introducción a los objetivos y contenidos de la sesión 2 del curso de Bases de Datos dentro del Máster Universitario en Desarrollo de Aplicaciones y Servicios Web de la Universidad de Alicante. Se describe someramente qué se entiende por una transacción y se nombran los niveles de aislamiento en SQL Server. Todo enfocado a la realización de los ejercicios-demostraciones de esos niveles de aislamiento. Ingenuo y con fallos de encuadre e iluminación clamorosos, pero no tiene más ambiciones que la de dejar constancia de algunas de las cosas que se dijeron en clase.

Ejemplos de transacciones en SQL Server

Descripción de cómo facilitar la ejecución de los ejercicios de la sesión de transacciones del moodle de la asignatura. Se trata de reorganizar las ventanas y hacer espacio para tener dos consultas a la vista. En cada una de ellas se mantendrán una o varias transacciones que pretendemos ejecutar simultáneamente. De esta forma podremos ver qué transacciones esperan a las otras y pasar de una a otra consulta con facilidad.

Paginación en SQL Server

Una introducción a los objetivos y contenidos de la sesión 3 del curso de Bases de Datos dentro del Máster Universitario en Desarrollo de Aplicaciones y Servicios Web de la Universidad de Alicante. El trabajo que permite la calificación de esta primera parte del curso se basa, precisamente, en lo que se describe en este vídeo. La paginación de resultados es una técnica que pretende agilizar el manejo remoto de grandes cantidades de datos. El ejemplo clásico es la navegación por un catálogo de productos. Si es el servidor el que, por el procedimiento que sea, divide la lista completa en páginas y solo envía una de ellas al cliente, estamos ahorrando en tiempo y uso de red. En SQL Server, para esta tarea, es fácil encontrar opiniones que desaconsejan el uso de cursores puesto que se supone que el entorno objetivo es de alta concurrencia. No obstante, se puede usar TOP() y ROW_NUMBER(). La sesión consiste en una serie de ejemplos sobre todas estas herramientas.

SQLator: An online SQL learning workbench

SQL (Structured Query Language) is one of the essential topics in foundation databases courses in higher education. Due to its apparent simple syntax, learning to use the full power of SQL can be a very difficult activity. In this paper, we introduce SQLator, which is a web-based interactive tool for learning SQL. SQLator's key function is the evaluate function, which allows a user to evaluate the correctness of his/her query formulation. The evaluate engine is based on complex heuristic algorithms. The tool also provides instructors the facility to create and populate database schemas with an associated pool of SQL queries. Currently it hosts two databases with a query pool of 300+ across the two databases. The pool is divided into 3 categories according to query complexity. The SQLator user can perform unlimited executions and evaluations on query formulations and/or view the solutions. The SQLator evaluate function has a high rate of success in evaluating the user's statement as correct (or incorrect) corresponding to the question. We will present in this paper, the basic architecture and functions of SQLator. We will further discuss the value of SQLator as an educational technology and report on educational outcomes based on studies conducted at the School of Information Technology and Electrical Engineering, The University of Queensland.

Applied web traffic analysis for numerical encoding of SQL Injection attack features.

SQL Injection Attack (SQLIA) remains a technique used by a computer network intruder to pilfer an organisation’s confidential data. This is done by an intruder re-crafting web form’s input and query strings used in web requests with malicious intent to compromise the security of an organisation’s confidential data stored at the back-end database. The database is the most valuable data source, and thus, intruders are unrelenting in constantly evolving new techniques to bypass the signature’s solutions currently provided in Web Application Firewalls (WAF) to mitigate SQLIA. There is therefore a need for an automated scalable methodology in the pre-processing of SQLIA features fit for a supervised learning model. However, obtaining a ready-made scalable dataset that is feature engineered with numerical attributes dataset items to train Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and Machine Leaning (ML) models is a known issue in applying artificial intelligence to effectively address ever evolving novel SQLIA signatures. This proposed approach applies numerical attributes encoding ontology to encode features (both legitimate web requests and SQLIA) to numerical data items as to extract scalable dataset for input to a supervised learning model in moving towards a ML SQLIA detection and prevention model. In numerical attributes encoding of features, the proposed model explores a hybrid of static and dynamic pattern matching by implementing a Non-Deterministic Finite Automaton (NFA). This combined with proxy and SQL parser Application Programming Interface (API) to intercept and parse web requests in transition to the back-end database. In developing a solution to address SQLIA, this model allows processed web requests at the proxy deemed to contain injected query string to be excluded from reaching the target back-end database. This paper is intended for evaluating the performance metrics of a dataset obtained by numerical encoding of features ontology in Microsoft Azure Machine Learning (MAML) studio using Two-Class Support Vector Machines (TCSVM) binary classifier. This methodology then forms the subject of the empirical evaluation.

An investigation into PL/SQL Injection.

SQL injection is a common attack method used to leverage infor-mation out of a database or to compromise a company’s network. This paper investigates four injection attacks that can be conducted against the PL/SQL engine of Oracle databases, comparing two recent releases (10g, 11g) of Oracle. The results of the experiments showed that both releases of Oracle were vulner-able to injection but that the injection technique often differed in the packages that it could be conducted in.

Numerical encoding to tame SQL injection attacks.

Recent years have seen an astronomical rise in SQL Injection Attacks (SQLIAs) used to compromise the confidentiality, authentication and integrity of organisations’ databases. Intruders becoming smarter in obfuscating web requests to evade detection combined with increasing volumes of web traffic from the Internet of Things (IoT), cloud-hosted and on-premise business applications have made it evident that the existing approaches of mostly static signature lack the ability to cope with novel signatures. A SQLIA detection and prevention solution can be achieved through exploring an alternative bio-inspired supervised learning approach that uses input of labelled dataset of numerical attributes in classifying true positives and negatives. We present in this paper a Numerical Encoding to Tame SQLIA (NETSQLIA) that implements a proof of concept for scalable numerical encoding of features to a dataset attributes with labelled class obtained from deep web traffic analysis. In the numerical attributes encoding: the model leverages proxy in the interception and decryption of web traffic. The intercepted web requests are then assembled for front-end SQL parsing and pattern matching by applying traditional Non-Deterministic Finite Automaton (NFA). This paper is intended for a technique of numerical attributes extraction of any size primed as an input dataset to an Artificial Neural Network (ANN) and statistical Machine Learning (ML) algorithms implemented using Two-Class Averaged Perceptron (TCAP) and Two-Class Logistic Regression (TCLR) respectively. This methodology then forms the subject of the empirical evaluation of the suitability of this model in the accurate classification of both legitimate web requests and SQLIA payloads.

Endowing NoSQL DBMS with SQL features through standard Call Level Interfaces

To store, update and retrieve data from database management systems (DBMS), software architects use tools, like call-level interfaces (CLI), which provide standard functionalities to interact with DBMS. However, the emerging of NoSQL paradigm, and particularly new NoSQL DBMS providers, lead to situations where some of the standard functionalities provided by CLI are not supported, very often due to their distance from the relational model or due to design constraints. As such, when a system architect needs to evolve, namely from a relational DBMS to a NoSQL DBMS, he must overcome the difficulties conveyed by the features not provided by NoSQL DBMS. Choosing the wrong NoSQL DBMS risks major issues with components requesting non-supported features. This paper focuses on how to deploy features that are not so commonly supported by NoSQL DBMS (like Stored Procedures, Transactions, Save Points and interactions with local memory structures) by implementing them in standard CLI.

Critical applications of SW 846 US EPA methods to evaluation of marine samples quality

Technical evaluation of analytical data is of extreme relevance considering it can be used for comparisons with environmental quality standards and decision-making as related to the management of disposal of dredged sediments and the evaluation of salt and brackish water quality in accordance with CONAMA 357/05 Resolution. It is, therefore, essential that the project manager discusses the environmental agency's technical requirements with the laboratory contracted for the follow-up of the analysis underway and even with a view to possible re-analysis when anomalous data are identified. The main technical requirements are: (1) method quantitation limits (QLs) should fall below environmental standards; (2) analyses should be carried out in laboratories whose analytical scope is accredited by the National Institute of Metrology (INMETRO) or qualified or accepted by a licensing agency; (3) chain of custody should be provided in order to ensure sample traceability; (4) control charts should be provided to prove method performance; (5) certified reference material analysis or, if that is not available, matrix spike analysis, should be undertaken and (6) chromatograms should be included in the analytical report. Within this context and with a view to helping environmental managers in analytical report evaluation, this work has as objectives the discussion of the limitations of the application of SW 846 US EPA methods to marine samples, the consequences of having data based on method detection limits (MDL) and not sample quantitation limits (SQL), and present possible modifications of the principal method applied by laboratories in order to comply with environmental quality standards.
