Abstract
A method, system and computer program product for staggering a stream application's deployment, by: providing one or more configuration settings that define one or more delays for instantiation or initialization of at least one target processing element of the stream application based on the stream application's run-time conditions or events; and instantiating or initializing the target processing element of the stream application when the delays defined by the configuration settings have been satisfied. The configuration settings may define the delays to wait until a specified period of time has lapsed after one or more other processing elements have been instantiated or initialized, or to wait until a specified amount of data has been processed by one or more other processing elements, or to wait until one or more signals is received from one or more other processing elements, before instantiating or initializing the target processing element.
