This course is designed to teach you about the Streams Processing Language. It will begin with the basic concepts of InfoSphere Streams and the basic Streams Processing Language operators used in a Streams program. You will learn how to access data from an external source using the Source operator and write an output stream using the Sink operator. You will then learn how and when to use the Functor, Punctor, Aggregation, Sort, Join, Split, Barrier and Delay operators. Lab exercises will use the InfoSphere Streams IDE that is based upon Eclipse as the development and testing environment, but you will get the opportunity to invoke the compilation of a Streams program from the command line as well.
The second half of the course will show how to control the placement of processing elements and the debugging capabilities of the Streams Processing Language. Next, you will be introduced to the data mining and financial toolkits as well as relational adapters. Finally, it will demonstrate how to extend the Streams Processing Language through the development of user-defined functions, C++ user-defined operators, Java user-defined operators and user-defined built-in operators.
Prerequisites
There are no prerequisites are required; however, use of an Eclipse-based tool would be beneficial as well as exposure to the C++ and Perl languages.
Objectives
- Explain how operators observe data on streams to create other streams
- Define the format for both the built-in Source and a Sink edge adapter operators
- List the types of URIs supported by Source and Sink operators
- Explain the use of sliding and tumbling windows in the Streams Processing Language
- Describe how to control the timing of tuples using the Delay operator
- Explain the use of the following operators: Functor, Punctor, Split, Join, Aggregation, Sort, Barrier, and Delay
- Explain the preprocessing capabilities of the Streams Processing Language and how those capabilities are used to generate Streams source code
- Describe how to use the Streams debugging capabilities
- Explain how to control the placement of operators onto processing specific nodes and how to fuse operators into specific processing elements
- Describe the Streams mining and financial toolkits provided by IBM
- Explain how to debug a Streams application
- Describe how to create a user-defined function
- List the steps necessary to create a C++ user-defined operator
- Explain how to create a Java user-defined operator
- Describe how to create a user-defined built-in operator
