Custom Window extension for siddhi

Siddhi  Window Extension allows events to be collected and expired without altering the event format based on the given input parameters like the Window operator. In this post, we are going to look how to write a custom window extension for siddhi and test case to test the function. By default in window extension archetype 2.0.0 it generates the code for length window so let's go deep into code and get some basic knowledge about the implementation.

Analytics Event Publisher for WSO2 CEP

WSO2 Complex Event Processor (CEP) is a lightweight, easy-to-use, open source Complex Event Processing server (CEP). It identifies the most meaningful events within the event cloud, analyzes their impact, and acts on them in real-time. Event publishers publish events to external systems via various transport protocols. and store data to databases for future analysis. Like the event receivers, this component also has different adapter implementations.

Stream Definitions for wso2 complex event processor

An event is a unit of data, and an event stream is a sequence of events of a particular type. The type of events can be defined as an event stream definition. so different stream definitions are required to be used to store several data streams into the same column family, different stream versions should be used with the same stream name corresponding to the column family.

Use siddhi Try it for Experimentation

This blog post explains how to use Siddhi Try It tool which comes with WSO2 CEP 4.2.0. The Siddhi Try It is a tool used for experimentation of event sequences through Siddhi Query Language (SiddhiQL) statements in real time basis. You can define an execution plan to store the event processing logic and input an event stream to test the Siddhi query processing functionality.
