45. Why YQL?
Thousands of Web Services and sources that
provide valuable data
Require Developers to read documentation and form
URLs/queries.
Data is isolated
Needs filtering, combining, tweaking, shaping
even after it gets to the developer.
Monday, May 17, 2010
46. YQL
Hosted web service and SQL-Like Language
Familiar to developers
Synonymous with Data access
Expressive enough to get the right data.
Self describing - show, desc table
Allows you to query, filter and join data across any
structured data on the web / web services
Real time engine
Monday, May 17, 2010
47. YQL Statement Basics
show: lists the supported tables
desc: describes the structure of a table
select: fetches data
insert/update/delete: modify data
use: use an Open Data Table
show tables
desc social.contacts
Monday, May 17, 2010
48. YQL Select Statement
SELECT what
FROM collection
WHERE filter condition
IN (sub-select)
LIMIT n OFFSET n
Monday, May 17, 2010
49. Demo:
developer.yahoo.com/yql/
Monday, May 17, 2010
62. Open Data Tables
Brings the power of the table model to new APIs
Schema defines mapping between YQL and
Endpoint
Keys can either be query, path or matrix parameters
Keys can be marked as required
YQL Compiler validates existence of required keys
Monday, May 17, 2010
67. USE Verb
use ‘http://url-to-def.xml’ as tableName;
select * from tableName where key=‘value’...
Imports the Table definition
Makes it available to following statements as
tableName
desc tableName - describes the def
Acts like a First Class Data Source just like
other YQL Tables.
Monday, May 17, 2010
68. Basics
select * from {table} where {key1} = "{value1}" and
{key2} = {value2}

80. select * from flickr.photos.search(0) where text =
"kittens" and tags = "domokun" and farm = 4 limit 10
Monday, May 17, 2010
81. Limit Summary
limit 10 - give me max 10 results from the data you
have
{table}(10) - get ten results from server
{table}(0) - get enough results from the server to fill my
local limit with the local filters

leverage the work of others to make access easier by
sharing tables

99. Do it your way:
<execute>
Monday, May 17, 2010
100. YQL Execute
extends Open Data Tables with server-side code
access APIs that require authentication
Netflix OAuth, FlickrAuth, Google AuthSub
join data across services
grab New York Times article tags and generate find
associated flickr photos
combine multiple searches into a single result: twitter,
web, news and image
Monday, May 17, 2010
101. YQL Execute
augment data:
city/state to APIs that just return zip code
create APIs from web page
celebrity birthdays scraped from imdb, caltrain
data transformation
convert the result from xml to Google's kml format
move business logic of your application to the cloud
Monday, May 17, 2010
102. <execute>
Javascript server-side scripting
No DOM, events etc, pure JS scripting
E4X support - XML literals, filtering ...
YQL no longer performs the GET request to the table
binding URL
Javascript has additional useful global objects
y.rest, y.include, y.query...
execute tag must return the data that will be the
output of the YQL select

111. Conclusion
More easily build applications
fewer lines of code
data processing done away from app
consistent and familiar syntax for all data access
iterative environment for developing the query
Monday, May 17, 2010
112. Conclusion
build applications that run faster
service in the cloud does the work
conversion, filtering, parallel requests...
with smaller network footprint
fewer (client) calls
smaller data amounts
closer to the data, fatter pipes
