Abstract
Resegmenting chunks of data for load balancing is disclosed. A plurality of first chunks of data is received. The plurality of first chunks of data includes one or more entries that include raw data produced by a component of an information technology environment and that reflects activity in the information technology environment. The plurality of first chunks of data is resegmented into a plurality of second chunks of data based on entry boundaries in at least some of the plurality of first chunks of data. A first subset of the plurality of second chunks of data is distributed to a first indexer of a set of indexers. An occurrence of a trigger event is determined, and in response to the trigger event, a second subset of the plurality of second chunks of data is distributed to a second indexer of the set of indexers.
