Abstract
A distributed system for processing messages includes one or more gateways, sequencers, and compute nodes. The gateway sends a message to the sequencer and the compute node for processing. The sequencer associates the message with an identifier indicating a relative sequence of the message among a plurality of messages. The compute node processes the message to generate a preliminary result, and determines, based on the identifier, whether the compute node processed the message in sequence or out of sequence relative to another message of a plurality of messages. If the compute node determines that the message was received out of sequence, the compute node may process a sequence of messages including the message and at least one preceding message in an appropriate sequence.
