Abstract

Techniques for managing a fused processing element are described. Embodiments receive streaming data to be processed by a plurality of processing elements. Additionally, an operator graph of the plurality of processing elements is established. The operator graph defines at least one execution path and wherein at least one of the processing elements of the operator graph is configured to receive data from at least one upstream processing element and transmit data to at least one downstream processing element. Embodiments detect an error condition has been satisfied at a first one of the plurality of processing elements, wherein the first processing element contains a plurality of fused operators. At least one of the plurality of fused operators is selected for removal from the first processing element. Embodiments then remove the selected at least one fused operator from the first processing element.
