Abstract
A tuple manager of a database system processes partial tuples from a streaming application and stores them in a database. The partial tuples may include a large object (LOB) that arrives at the database at a different time than the rest of the corresponding tuple. A tuple manager stores partial tuples and uses a partial tuples index to track the partial tuples and coordinate recombination of corresponding partial tuples. The database allows queries to be run on the partial data before the tuples are reconstructed allowing faster access to potentially important data before the arrival and processing of a partial tuple such as an LOB.
