Abstract
The disclosed embodiments include techniques for exporting partial search results in parallel from peer indexers of a data intake and query system to the worker nodes. In particular, partial search results (e.g., time-indexed events) obtained from peer indexers can be exported in parallel from the peer indexers to worker nodes. Exporting the partial search results from the peer indexers in parallel can improve the rate at which the partial search results are transferred to the worker nodes for subsequent combination with partial search results of the external data systems. As such, the rate at which the search results of a search query can be obtained from the distributed data system can be improved by implementing parallel export techniques.
