Requesting Heterogeneous Data Sources with Array Comprehensions in Hop.js
Abstract
During the past few years the volume of accumulated data has in-
creased dramatically. New kinds of data stores have emerged as
NoSQL family stores. Many modern applications now collect, analyze, and produce data from several heterogeneous sources. How-
ever implementing such applications is still difficult because of lack
of appropriate tools and formalisms. We propose a solution to this
problem in the context of the JavaScript programming language by
extending array comprehensions. Our extension allows program-
mers to query data from usual stores, such as SQL databases,
NoSQL databases, Semantic Web data repositories, Web pages, or
even custom user defined data structures. The extension has been
implemented in the Hop.js system. It is the subject of this paper.
