}
● Data published conforming to a strongly typed data stream
9. Data Persistence
● Data Abstraction Layer to enable pluggable data connectors
○ RDBMS, Cassandra, HBase, custom..
● Analytics Tables
○ The data persistence entity in WSO2 Data Analytics Server
○ Provides a backend data source agnostic way of storing and retrieving data
○ Allows applications to be written in a way, that it does not depend on a specific data source, e.g. JDBC
(RDBMS), Cassandra APIs etc..
○ WSO2 DAS gives a standard REST API in accessing the Analytics Tables
● Analytics Record Stores
○ An Analytics Record Store, stores a specific set of Analytics Tables
○ Event persistence can configure which Analytics Record Store to be used for storing incoming events
○ Single Analytics Table namespace, the target record store only given at the time of table creation
○ Useful in creating Analytics Tables where data will be stored in multiple target databases
● Analytics File System
○ The location where the indexing data is stored
○ Provides multiple implementations OOTB, or custom implementations can be provided
11. Interactive Analysis
● Full text data indexing support powered by Apache Lucene
● Drill down search support
● Distributed data indexing
○ Designed to support scalability
● Near real time data indexing and retrieval
○ Data indexed immediately as received
14. Batch Analytics
● Powered by Apache Spark up to 30x higher performance than Hadoop
● Parallel, distributed with optimized in-memory processing
● Scalable script-based analytics written using an easy-to-learn, SQL-like
query language powered by Spark SQL
● Interactive built in web interface for ad-hoc query execution
● HA/FO supported scheduled query script execution
● Run Spark on a single node, Spark embedded Carbon server cluster or
connect to external Spark cluster
17. ● Idea is to given the “Overall idea” in a glance (e.
g. car dashboard)
● Support for personalization, you can build
your own dashboard.
● Also the entry point for Drill down
● How to build?
○ Dashboard via Google Gadget and
content via HTML5 + Javascript
○ Use WSO2 User Engagement Server to
build a dashboard (or JSP/PHP)
○ Use charting libraries like Vega or D3
Communicate: Dashboards
18. ● Start with data in tabular format
● Map each column to dimension in your plot like X,Y, color,
point size, etc
● Also do drill-downs
● Create a chart with few clicks

21. What’s Realtime Analytics?...
Realtime Analytics in Complex Event Processing
→
• Gather data from multiple sources
• Correlate data streams over time
• Find interesting occurrences
• And Notify
• All in Realtime !
24. Realtime Execution
• Process in streaming fashion
(one event at a time)
• Execution logic written as Execution Plans
• Execution Plan
• An isolated logical execution unit
• Includes a set of queries, and relates to multiple input and
output event streams
• Executed using dedicated WSO2 Siddhi engine

30. define stream Purchase (price double, cardNo long,place string);
from every (a1 = Purchase[price < 10] ) ->
a2 = Purchase[ price >10000 and a1.cardNo == a2.cardNo ]
within 1 day
select a1.cardNo as cardNo, a2.price as price, a2.place as place

31. define stream StockStream (symbol string, price double, volume int);
partition by (symbol of StockStream)
begin
from t1=StockStream,
t2=StockStream [(t2[last] is null and t1.price < price) or
(t2[last].price < price)]+
