Abstract
Data dividers with partition identifiers are described for use in data analytics for streaming data. A continuous flow of data items received by a network-based data analytics service may be discretized into data buckets based on a time window associated with each of the data buckets receiving the data items from the data stream Data dividers may be generated based on a number of partitions determined to be necessary to implement parallel processing of the data items and each partition may include the data items to be processed as well as a single data divider ordered at the end of the partition such that the data divider is the last item to be processed. In this way, the network-based data analytics service may determine that all of the data items for a given data bucket have been processed once all of the data dividers have been processed.
