About Jube

Jube is open-source transaction and event monitoring software. Jube implements real-time data wrangling, artificial intelligence, decision making and case management. Jube is particularly strong when implemented in fraud and abuse detection use cases.

Data wrangling is real-time. Data wrangling is directed via a series of rules created using either a point-and-click rule builder or an intuitive rule coder. Rules are in-memory matching functions tested against data returned from high-performance cache tables, where datasets are fetched only once for each key that the rules roll up to for each transaction or event processing, with the matches aggregating using a variety of functions. Alternative means of maintaining a lightweight long-term state to facilitate data wrangling is Time To Live (TTL) Counters which are incremented on rule match and then decremented for that incrementation on time-lapse.

Data wrangling return values are independently available for use as features in artificial intelligence training and real-time recall or tested by rules to perform a specific action (e.g., the rejection of a transaction or event). Wrangled values are returned in the real-time response payload and can facilitate a Function as a Service (FaaS) pattern. Response payload data is also stored in an addressable fashion, improving the experience of advanced analytical reporting while also reducing database resource \ compute cost.

Jube is developed stateless and can support massive horizontal scalability and separation of concerns in the infrastructure.

Jube takes a novel approach to artificial intelligence, ultimately Supervised Learning, yet blending anomaly detection with confirmed class data to ensure datasets of sufficient amounts of class data. Using data archived from its processing, Jube searches for optimal input variables, hidden layers and processing elements. The result is small, optimal, generalised and computationally inexpensive models for efficient real-time recall. The approach taken by Jube allows artificial intelligence’s benefits to be available very early in an implementation’s lifecycle. It avoids over-fitting models to typology long since passed.

Transaction or event monitoring overlooks the embedding in human-engaging business processes. Jube is real-time, but this does not forgo the need for manual intervention; hence Jube makes comprehensive and highly customisable case management and visualisation intrinsically available in the user interface.

To ensure the segregation of user responsibilities, a user, role and permission model is in place, which controls access to each page within the Jube user interface. Detailed audit logs are available. Any update to a configuration by a user retains a version history, in which the original is logically deleted and then replaced with the new version.

Jube is multi-tenanted, allowing a single infrastructure to be shared among many logically isolated entities, maintaining total isolation between tenant data with no loss of function in the user interface.

Stargazing

Please consider giving the project a GitHub Star. Thank you in advance!

Quickstart

Jube runs on commodity Linux. The Quickstart has the following prerequisites:

• .Net 8 Runtime.
• Postgres database version 13 onwards (tested on 15.4 but no significant database development to cause a breaking change).

Subject to prerequisites, Jube can be up and running in minutes:

git clone https://github.com/jube-home/jube.git
cd jube/Jube.App
export ConnectionString="Host=<host>;Port=<port>;Database=<defaultdb>;Username=<username>;Password=<password>;Pooling=true;Minimum Pool Size=0;Maximum Pool Size=100;SSL Mode=Require;Trust Server Certificate=true;"
export ASPNETCORE_URLS="https://localhost:5001"
dotnet run

Change the template value for setting the ConnectionString Environment Variable, then run the shell script as above. Wait for the build to complete, after which observe the welcome message.

Waiting a few moments more will ensure that the embedded Kestrel web server is started correctly. In a web browser, navigate to the bound URL https://localhost:5001/ as per the ASPNETCORE_URLS Environment Variable.

The default user name \ password combination is Administrator \ Administrator, although the password will be need to be changed on first login.

A more comprehensive installation guide is available in the Getting Started of the documentation.

Documentation

The documentation has been drafted to include all features, and there should not be any undocumented know-how. The documentation adopts an instructional style that will explain most features step-by-step with extensive use of screenshots.

Jube is committed to high-quality instructional documentation and maintains it as part of the overall release methodology. If documentation is inadequate, unclear or missing, raise a Github Issue.

Support

Free Support is available via Github Issues. Paid Support is private and direct access to the developer on a time and material basis. For more information email support@jube.io.

Reporting Vulnerabilities

Please do not file GitHub issues for security vulnerabilities, as they are public.

Jube takes security issues very seriously. If you have any concerns about Jube or believe you have uncovered a vulnerability, please contact via the e-mail address security@jube.io. In the message, try to describe the issue and, ideally, a way of reproducing it.

Please report any security problems to Jube before disclosing them publicly.
