Abstract
A capture service running on an application server receives events from a client application running on an application server to be stored in a data store and stores the events in an in-memory bounded buffer on the application server, the in-memory bounded buffer comprising a plurality of single-threaded segments, the capture service to write events to each segment in parallel. The in-memory bounded buffer provides a notification to a buffer flush regulator when a number of events stored in the in-memory bounded buffer reaches a predefined limit. The in-memory bounded buffer receive a request to flush the events in the in-memory bounded buffer from a consumer executor service. The consumer executor service consumes the events in the in-memory bounded buffer using a dynamically sized thread pool of consumer threads to read the segments of the bounded buffer in parallel, wherein consuming the events comprises writing the events directly to the data store.
