A high-performance, fault-tolerant system for processing millions of events per second with sub-second latency. Built with modern web technologies and designed for horizontal scaling.
Architecture Overview
This system implements a distributed stream processing architecture with the following components:
Core Components
Data Ingestion Layer (/backend/ingestion/)
High-throughput event collectors
Multiple input sources (HTTP, WebSocket, SSE)
Rate limiting and backpressure handling
Stream Processing Engine (/backend/processing/)
Real-time event processing pipeline
Windowing and aggregation functions
Fault-tolerant processing with automatic recovery
Storage Layer (/backend/storage/)
Time-series data storage
Distributed caching layer
Data partitioning and sharding
Monitoring & Analytics (/frontend/)
Real-time dashboard
Performance metrics visualization
System health monitoring
Key Features
High Throughput: Processes millions of events per second
Low Latency: Sub-second processing latency
Fault Tolerance: Automatic failover and recovery mechanisms
