Dalton: Learned Partitioning for Distributed Data Streams

Anastasia Ailamaki, Ioannis Mytilinis, Eleni Zapridou

To sustain the input rate of high-throughput streams, modern stream processing systems rely on parallel execution. However, skewed data yield imbalanced load assignments and create stragglers that hinder scalability. Deciding on a static partitioning for a ...
