Abstract
The disclosed embodiments provide a system for processing data. During operation, the system determines a current incoming queries per second (QPS) to one or more components for processing queries of a graph database, wherein the graph database is replicated across multiple clusters and distributed among a set of storage nodes in each of the clusters. Next, the system uses the current incoming QPS to estimate, for the one or more components, an expected QPS associated with fanning out of the queries to the clusters. The system then selects a number of clusters in the multiple clusters for fanning out of a query based on the expected QPS and one or more throughput limits for the one or more components. Finally, the system transmits the query to one or more of the storage nodes in the selected number of clusters.
