Abstract
Systems and methods are provided to process an event stream using nodes arranged as a cluster in which the nodes are in a leader-follower relationship with one node being the leader at any given time. Tracking of node membership and leadership status can be conducted in a manager node for a variety of applications. Each node of the cluster can register in the manager node and can receive the same set of event streams as the other nodes of the cluster. The leader node can process an event of an event stream with the follower nodes tracking the processing by the leader node, where the leader node can publish the processed event. Leadership can be changed from the leader node to another node of the cluster based on a performance criterion of the leader node. Additional systems and methods can be implemented in a variety of applications.
