Pipelines

Each 10x Engine instance executes a configurable pipeline to read, process and output data:

  • Compile


    Scan source code and binary repos to generate symbol library files.

  • Run


    Transform event stream into TenXObjects for edge/cloud processing.

Units

Each pipeline is composed of units which are runtime components that read, process and output data. Units are chained together to form a pipeline.

Each pipeline unit defines its configurable values via a module file.

For example, the compile scan unit provides settings for extracting symbol values from source code/binary files, while the run input unit provides settings for reading log/trace events.

The 10x Engine supports the following unit types:

Type Description Compile Example Run Example
Provider Loads local/remote resources into the pipeline GitHub Symbol
Producer Read input data into the pipeline Source Input
Processor Process input data into output objects Scan Transform
Publisher Write output objects to local/remote output Link Output
Observer Observer and monitor pipeline execution Console Monitor

Upon initialization the 10x Engine scans its include paths folder for sub-folders containing pipeline definition files.

A pipeline will run until all producer units have completed, at which point it will signal all units to begin a shutdown process where each unit flushes its remaining data and the process terminates.
