Presentation: MacroBase: Analytic Monitoring for the Internet of Things

Time: Tuesday 17:10 - 18:00 / Location: Grand Ballroom C

An increasing proportion of data today is generated by automated processes, sensors, and systems---collectively, the Internet of Things (IoT). A core challenge in IoT and an increasingly popular value proposition of many IoT applications in domains including industrial diagnostics, predictive maintenance, and urban observability is in identifying and highlighting unusual and surprising data (e.g., poor driving behavior, equipment failures, gunshots). We call this task---which is often statistical in nature and time-sensitive---analytic monitoring. To facilitate rapid development and scalable deployment of analytic monitoring queries, we have developed MacroBase, a new kind of data analytics engine that provides turn-key analytic monitoring of IoT data streams. MacroBase implements a customizable pipeline of outlier detection, summarization, and ranking operators. To facilitate efficient and accurate operation, MacroBase implements several cross-layer optimizations across robust estimation, pattern mining, and sketching procedures. As a result, MacroBase can analyze several million events per second on a single server. MacroBase has already uncovered several unexpected behaviors (and corresponding bugs) in production in a medium-scale IoT deployment.
