Abstract
A distributed system with multiple nodes, each of which processes input data streams according to a set of independent, asynchronous processing components connected in a manner represented by a directed graph, is dynamically updated. Such a dynamic update occurs while the system is processing input data by pausing the input data stream, making changes to the system configuration, and then restarting the input data stream. If the update fails for any reason, the system configuration is rolled back to its prior state.
