Multiple ALTO Resources Query Using Multipart Message
draft-zhang-alto-multipart-00
Abstract
Many ALTO use cases involve multiple ALTO information resources like
network map, cost map and property map to achieve their own goal. To
make the ALTO client query them one by one is not only inefficient
but also possible to introduce inconsistent issues. Further more,
some ALTO information resources may have correlation, which means
one's input parameters may depends on another one's response. So
some advanced query schema is required. This document proposes an
extension to support the multiple ALTO resources query with HTTP
multipart message and the existing JSON query languages.

1. Introduction
1.1. Background
Application-Layer Traffic Optimization (ALTO) protocol [RFC7285] and
its extensions already define several kinds of information resources,
like network map, cost map, property map, to expose useful network
informations to applications. However, many applications cannot only
use a single information resource to achieve their optimization goal.
Retrieving multiple ALTO information resources is very common in many
ALTO use cases.
Although the ALTO client can query multiple ALTO information
resources one by one, it is not inefficient. And because the network
delay between different requests and the frequent change of ALTO
information resources, the responses may be inconsistent.
Further more, some ALTO information resources have known
dependencies, which means the ALTO client may need one's response to
decide another one's query input parameters.
To be summarized, we need the multipart query service for three
reasons:
o Clients may want to query multiple ALTO information resources in a
single request to reduce the time consumption.
o Clients may want to query multiple ALTO resources consistently,
which means the server should guarantee the responses of all
resources are generated at the same time.
o Some use cases need to query multiple ALTO resources with a joint
relationship.
This document defines a new ALTO services for: (1) querying multiple
ALTO resources in a single request/response, and (2) supporting
general-purpose JSON query languages to resolve the relational query.
1.2. Requirements Language
The key words "MUST", "MUST NOT", "REQUIRED", "SHALL", "SHALL NOT",
"SHOULD", "SHOULD NOT", "RECOMMENDED", "MAY", and "OPTIONAL" in this
document are to be interpreted as described in [RFC2119].
Chen & Zhang Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 3]
Internet-Draft Multipart July 2018
2. Terminologies
TBD.
3. Use Cases
We take the following potential use cases which may benefit from the
multipart query service.
3.1. Simple Batch Query
The simplest use case is to query a batch of ALTO resources in a
single request.
Although the ALTO client can perform ALTO requests for multiple
times, it is not only inefficient but also inconsistent.
For example, the ALTO server provides a network map resource A and a
dependent cost map resource B. Both resources may change frequently.
Assume the ALTO client queries the network map first, and it gets the
revision A1. When the client queries the cost map, the network map
may be already changed from A1 to A2, and the client receives cost
map B2 which depends on A2 not A1. So the responded cost map B2 is
not consistent with the previous network map A1.
This case requires the ALTO server to provide a way for the ALTO
client to query multiple ALTO resources in a single transaction.
3.2. Properties Constrained Query
Beyond the simple batch query, there are also some another use cases
requiring a new service for relational query. For example, Some
clients may need to query an endpoint property map first, and find
endpoints with some properties fitting some conditions. And then
they query the endpoint cost of these endpoints.
In this case, the endpoint cost query depends on the result of the
property map query. Although the ALTO client can cache the whole
property map in its local storage, it is still not efficient and may
conduct the consistency issue if the property map changes frequently.
So it requires a new service to provide multiple dependent resources
efficiently and consistently.
A general multipart query service benefits the ALTO client in two
aspects:
o It allows the ALTO client to specify the boolean test to reduce
the transmission of the useless data from the ALTO server.
Chen & Zhang Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 4]
Internet-Draft Multipart July 2018
o It compounds multiple ALTO information resources in a single
response to reduce the communication times. Thus, the
transmission latency can be reduced.
3.3. Path Vector Query
Another use case requiring the multiple resource query is the
relational query between the on-demand generated resources. A
straightforward example is the path vector query demonstrated in
[I-D.ietf-alto-path-vector].
[I-D.ietf-alto-path-vector] introduces an extension of ALTO to
provide path vector information by cost map and unified property map
[I-D.ietf-alto-unified-props-new]. The client using path vector
extension will usually query cost map and a dynamically generated
property map sequentially. It is even hard to cache the full data of
resources, because both the cost map and the property map are on-
demand generated by the query input here. Thus, the only way to
reduce the time consumption is to compound the two resources.
4. Requirements
From the use cases described in Section 3, there are three additional
requirements for ALTO protocol:
MPQ-Req1: The ALTO protocol SHOULD allow the client to query
multiple ALTO resources in a single request, and return the result
in a single response.
It is the basic requirement to provide the query for the compound
resources. Even simple cases can benefit if this requirement is
realized.
MPQ-Req2: The ALTO protocol SHOULD provide general filter schema for
any ALTO resources.
Current filter schema in ALTO protocol only supports the simple
boolean test of numerical comparison. And the boolean filtered
query is only supported by the cost map and the endpoint cost
resource. It is not enough for the general cases. Even simple
property map may require more general filter schema.
MPQ-Req3: The ALTO protocol SHOULD support relational query for
mulitple joint resources.
Some ALTO resources are relational and cannot be used
individually. The path vector query is such an example. In these
Chen & Zhang Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 5]
Internet-Draft Multipart July 2018
use cases, the support of relational query for multiple joint
resources is very helpful.
5. Overview of Approach
This document uses two key techniques to realize the general multiple
resources query:
o Use Multipart message [RFC2046] to deliver compound resources.
o Accept JSON Query Language like XQuery [W3CXQUERY] and JSONiq
[JSONIQ] for general query process and relational joint query.
6. Multipart Query Resource
6.1. Media Type
"multipart/related" [RFC2387].
6.2. HTTP Method
An ALTO Multipart Query resource is requested using the HTTP POST
method.
6.3. Capabilities
The capabilities are defined by an object of type
MultipartQueryCapabilities:
object {
JSONString query-langs<0..*>;
} MultipartQueryCapabilities;
where "query-langs" is an array of JSONString to indicate which query
languages are supported by this resource.
6.4. Accept Input Parameters
The input parameters for a Multipart Query request are supplied in
the entity body of the POST request. This document specifies the
input parameters with a data format indicated by the media type
"application/alto-multipartquery+alto", which is a JSON object of
type ReqMultipartQuery:
Chen & Zhang Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 6]
Internet-Draft Multipart July 2018
object {
ResourceQuery resources<1..*>;
[JsonString query-lang;]
} ReqMultipartQuery;
object {
JsonString resource-id;
[JsonValue input;]
} ResourceQuery;
with fields:
resources: List of ResourceQuery objects for which resources are to
be queried and how to query them. Each ResourceQuery object MUST
include the "resource-id" field to indicate which resource is to
be queried. If the queried resource requires the POST method, the
"input" field MUST be specified. The value of the "input" field
MUST be either a JSONString or a JSONObject. When its value is a
JSONObject, its format MUST be as the accept input parameters of
its resource. When its value is a JSONString, it MUST be a
program written in the query language specified by the "query-
lang" field.
query-lang: Optional. The value of the "query-lang" field MUST be
one of values in the "query-langs" capability. If this field is
not specified in the request, the ALTO client SHOULD NOT use any
query language in the "input" field.
6.5. Uses
An array with the resource ID(s) of resource(s) which this multipart
query resource can compound. The used resource can be any available
ALTO resources except for the multipart query resource. If the
"uses" field is not specified, all the available ALTO resources can
be queried except for the multipart query resource.
6.6. Response
The response of multipart query resource is a multipart message.
Each part of this multipart message is the response of a queried
resource in the request.
7. Protocol Errors
The validation of each "input" field of the multipart query input
parameters depends on the queried resource:
Chen & Zhang Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 7]
Internet-Draft Multipart July 2018
o If the "input" field of the multipart query input parameters is
neither a JSONObject nor a JSONString, the ALTO server SHOULD
return the E_INVALID_FIELD_TYPE error, unless a future protocol
extension supports the non-JSONObject input parameters.
o If the "input" field of the multipart query input parameters is a
JSONObject, the ALTO server MUST validate the value using its
queried resource and return the corresponding error if it has.
o If the "input" field of the multipart query input parameters is a
JSONString:
* If the "query-lang" is not specified, the ALTO server MUST
return the E_INVALID_FIELD_TYPE error.
* If the "query-lang" is specified, the ALTO server MUST execute
this JSONString as a program written in the "query-lang". If
the execution failed, the ALTO server MUST return the
E_INVALID_FIELD_VALUE error. If the execution succeed but the
result fails to pass the validation of the queried resource,
the ALTO server MUST return the E_INVALID_FIELD_VALUE error and
attach the error message returned by the queried resource into
the "message" field of the ALTO error message.

9. Compatibility
9.1. Compatibility with Legacy ALTO Clients/Servers
The multipart query service is a new ALTO service using the new media
type. So the legacy ALTO client cannot identify this service from
the IRD of the ALTO server supporting it. And the legacy ALTO server
also cannot interpret the request of a multipart query service sent
by the ALTO client.
Chen & Zhang Expires January 3, 2019 [Page 15]
Internet-Draft Multipart July 2018
9.2. Compatibility with Existing Protocol Extensions
The multipart query service can use any ALTO resources exchanging
JSON data in request/response mechanism. So all the known ALTO
extensions like ALTO Calendar [I-D.ietf-alto-cost-calendar], Multi-
Cost [RFC8189] and the Path Vector [I-D.ietf-alto-path-vector]
extension, which does not change the request/response mechanism, are
compatible with the multipart query service.
9.3. Compatibility with New Communication Mechanism
Since the multipart query service use multipart messages as the
response instead of the JSON data, the incremental update service
defined in [I-D.ietf-alto-incr-update-sse] does not support it. If
the update service does not notify the incremental change to the ALTO
client but only notify the full replacement, it can still work. But
it is very inefficient. So an extension to integrate multipart query
and the incremental update smoothly is required. HTTP/2 may be a
candidate solution to this problem.
10. Misc Considerations
10.1. Support Incremental Update
Because the response body entry of the multipart query resource is
not a single JSON object, it may not be compatible with the existing
incremental update representation.
10.2. Anonymous Resources
Some use cases may need the server generates "anonymous" ALTO
resources for the on-demand information. The "anonymous" ALTO
resources usually cannot appear alone but need to bind with some
"non-anonymous" ALTO resources.
11. Security Considerations
Allow the ALTO clients to upload the query language script may not be
safe. The script injection and many potential attacks can be
conducted. The security issue should be discussed and considered.
12. IANA Considerations
