Abstract

We conjecture that meaningful analysis of large-scale provenance can be preserved by analyzing provenance data in limited memory while the data is still in motion; that the provenance needs not be fully resident before analysis can occur. As a proof of concept, this paper defines a stream model for reasoning about provenance data in motion for Big Data provenance.We propose a novel streaming algorithm for the backward provenance query, and apply it to the live provenance captured from agent-based simulations. The performance test demonstrates high throughput, low latency and good scalability, in a distributed stream processing framework built on Apache Kafka and Spark Streaming.
