Managing the Processing of Streamed Data in a Data Streaming Application Using Query Information from a Relational Database

Queries are monitored in a database which receives input from a stream computing application to identify data of interest. Parameters defining the data of interest, which are preferably expressed as a logical query, are sent to the stream computing application, which then processes the in-flight streamed data satisfying the parameters in some special manner. In some embodiments, the stream computing application increases the processing priority of in-flight data satisfying the parameters. In some embodiments, the stream computing application applies additional processing steps to the in-flight data satisfying the parameters to provide enhanced data or metadata.
