Abstract
Techniques for facilitating and accelerating log data processing by splitting data streams are disclosed herein. The front-end clusters generate large amount of log data in real time and transfer the log data to an aggregating cluster. The aggregating cluster is designed to aggregate incoming log data streams from different front-end servers and clusters. The aggregating cluster further splits the log data into a plurality of data streams so that the data streams are sent to a receiving application in parallel. In one embodiment, the log data are randomly split to ensure the log data are evenly distributed in the split data streams. In another embodiment, the application that receives the split data streams determines how to split the log data.
