Differential processing of data streams based on protocols
摘要
說明書
In some instances, irrespective of whether the particular data is detected, first-level nodes may route data streams to one or more destination addresses 1008. It will be appreciated that data elements in a single stream and/or in multiple streams may be routed to a same destination address or to different destination addresses. Destination addresses 1008 may correspond to, for example, devices, systems and/or data stores that are physically separate from set of nodes 1006 and/or scheduler 1004 and/or that are co-located with set of nodes 1006 and/or scheduler 1004. Destination addresses 1008 can include, in some instances, an address identified in a streaming rule applicable to a particular data stream and/or data element. In some instances, data elements and/or a stream is routed to multiple destination addresses. A stream destination may maintain an index so as to be able to associate a storage location with one or more data-related identifiers, such as an identifier of a data, data source and/or time stamp.
In some instances, data is processed by first-level nodes or by other nodes prior to routing the data to the destination addresses. The processing may include, for example, applying a filter. Processing may further be performed as part of a monitoring and detection action. For example, all or part (e.g., composite identifiers) may be transformed from one standard or format to another (e.g., to a base standard, such as an HL7 standard, or a standard that corresponds to a rule or protocol).
