This document summarizes the research conducted in two inte rrelated projects. The Aurora project being implemented at Brown and Brandeis under the direction of U ˘ gur Cetintemel, Mitch Cherniack, Michael Stonebraker and Stan Zdonik strives to build a single-site h igh performance stream processing engine. It has an innovative collection of operators, workflow orien tation, and strives to maximize quality of service for connecting applications. A further goal of Auro ra is to extend this engine to a distributed environment in which multiple machines closely co-operatein achieving high quality of service. In contrast, the Medusa project being investigated at M.I.T. under the direction of Hari Balakrish- nan and Michael Stonebraker is providing networking infras tructure for Aurora operations. In addition, Medusa is stressing distributed environments where the var ious machines belong to different organiza- tions. In this case, there can be no common goal, and much loos er coupling is needed. Medusa is work- ing on an innovative agoric infrastructure in which variousparticipants can co-operate in distributed streaming operations. Finally, some have questioned whether specialized stream p rocessing software is necessary. They speculate that conventional data base systems can adequate ly deal with the needs of stream-oriented applications. In order to answer this question one way or the other, both groups are working on a stream- oriented benchmark, called the Linear Road benchmark, which we intend to run on both specialized and conventional system infrastructure. |
