Abstract
A distributed system including multiple processing nodes. The distributed system can perform certain acts. The acts can include receiving a first conflation event identifying a first node and a second node. The first node can be part of a first set. The first set can include a sole parent node stored at a first processing node of the multiple processing nodes. The second node can be part of a second set. The second set can include a sole parent node stored at a second processing node of the multiple processing nodes. The first and second sets can be disjoint sets. The first conflation event can be received at an event-driven stream application at one of the multiple processing nodes. The acts also can include conflating the first set and the second set into a conflated set. The conflated set can include the first and second nodes. The conflated set can include a sole parent node. Data for each node of the conflated set can be stored at the sole parent node of the conflated set at a processing node of the multiple processing nodes. Other embodiments are disclosed.
