Azure Stream Analytics query to detect missing alive event for a specific deviceId

问题

I do not see a way to analyse a stream for the absence of a specific event with azure stream analytics query language. The stream may contain DeviceAlive and BeaconDetected events containing a DeviceId and in case of BeaconDetected also a BeaconId. Now I want to generate an error event if the DeviceAlive event is missing.

How can I achieve this? I tried to use reference data with all valid deviceIds. But I am not allowed to do a linq-wise "contains" query like this

SELECT * FROM
     inputStream
WHERE DeviceId IN (SELECT Id FROM DeviceReferenceData)

How can I do such a query. Is this possible by joining the inputStream with the DeviceReferenceData table? I guess I just do not see the obvious.

The events e.g. are looking like this:

 {
    "EventType": "DeviceAlive",
    "DeviceId": "winiot-pi",
    "EventEnqueuedUtcTime": "2018-11-19T11:00:20.5594584+01:00"
 },
 {
    "EventType": "BeaconDetected",
    "BeaconId": "2",
    "DeviceId": "winiot-pi",
    "EventEnqueuedUtcTime": "2018-11-19T11:00:20.5594584+01:00"
 }

Doing a query like this, does not produce the expected result:

SELECT
    iothub.*,r.id as rerId
into output
FROM
    iothub TIMESTAMP BY EventEnqueuedUtcTime
Left OUTER Join devicesReference r on iothub.DeviceId = r.Id

This only returns a NULL referenceId for every DeviceAlive event. The output in csv:

19.11.2018 10:00:57;BeaconDetected;2;winiot-pi2;-80;winiot-pi2
19.11.2018 10:00:57;BeaconDetected;2;winiot-pi;-40;winiot-pi
19.11.2018 10:01:07;BeaconDetected;2;winiot-pi2;-80;winiot-pi2
19.11.2018 10:01:07;BeaconDetected;2;winiot-pi;-40;winiot-pi
19.11.2018 10:01:20;ReceiverDeviceAlive;winiot-pi2;winiot-pi2;;
19.11.2018 10:01:30;ReceiverDeviceAlive;winiot-pi2;winiot-pi2;;

But what I need is the information on every time window also if the window does not contain any events. We can break it down to that question I guess: How to query and see also time windows that have none of the desired events. Is that altogether possible?

Thank you for your help.

It is a good advice to talk to a colleague, even if he does not fully understand what you are talking about. ;-) Here is the solution for generating an error event by detecting the absence of alive events in a 30 second window for a dedicated device with the help of a reference device table. Those links helped me a lot understanding more of it:

                System.Timestamp as EndOfWindow

            GROUP BY TumblingWindow(s, 30)
),
AllReferenceDevices AS /* generate one event per deviceId per period */
(
            SELECT devicesReference.Id, OneEvent.EndOfWindow
            FROM OneEvent JOIN devicesReference
            ON OneEvent.EndOfWindow = OneEvent.EndOfWindow
),

        AllReferenceDevices.Id as FromDeviceId,
        AllReferenceDevices.Id as ToDeviceId,
        AllReferenceDevices.EndOfWindow as EventEnqueuedUtcTime
    FROM 
        AllReferenceDevices 
      LEFT join  iothub  TIMESTAMP BY EventEnqueuedUtcTime
   ON DATEDIFF(s, iothub, AllReferenceDevices ) BETWEEN 0 and 30 
            AND iothub.DeviceId = AllReferenceDevices.Id
    WHERE iothub IS NULL
 ) 


SELECT  *
INTO ReceiverDeviceConnectivityErrorDetectedOutput
FROM DeviceConnectivityErrorDetection

Based on your requirements, maybe you could use JOIN reference Data to find the deviceId which is missing in the reference data collection. Please try below sql:

SELECT
    jsoninput.*,r.id as rerId
into output
FROM
    jsoninput
Left OUTER Join jsonreference r on jsoninput.id = r.id
where r.id is null
