  • Method and system for tracking entities in a computer network

    Issued US 7398310

    A method and system for tracking entities in a computer network. A method includes receiving node information related to a node coupled to a computer network. The method further includes determining whether an entity associated with the node has been previously identified in the computer network. If the entity has been previously identified in the computer network, the node information is linked to an entry for the entity in the database. If the entity has not been previously identified in the…

The method further includes determining whether an entity associated with the node has been previously identified in the computer network. If the entity has been previously identified in the computer network, the node information is linked to an entry for the entity in the database. If the entity has not been previously identified in the computer network, a new entry is created in the database, and the node information is linked to the new entry.

  • Plinko - the smart parser

    Plinko was originally an experiment with Prefix Trees and log parsing. The general concept is to have a single end point you can send any data to, in a "fire and forget" fashion. Plinko should identify and parse the data completely without the sending system caring what it sent. The latest version supports named fields in the STL files for tagging data parsed in the Prefix Tree and anonymous functions for parsing dynamic message payloads. We now output JSON objects and I'm working on HBase…

    Plinko was originally an experiment with Prefix Trees and log parsing. The general concept is to have a single end point you can send any data to, in a "fire and forget" fashion. Plinko should identify and parse the data completely without the sending system caring what it sent. The latest version supports named fields in the STL files for tagging data parsed in the Prefix Tree and anonymous functions for parsing dynamic message payloads. We now output JSON objects and I'm working on HBase integration. By outputting to JSON it also leaves open the possibility for on the fly in memory correlation between events. Read the included README before starting, it has a quick start guide and info on the constructors.
