Exemplary embodiments allow performance of stream computations on real-time data streams using one or more map operations and/or one or more update operations. A map operation is a stream computation in which stream events in one or more real-time data streams are processed in a real-time manner to generate zero, one or more new stream events. An update operation is a stream computation in which stream events in one or more real-time data streams are processed in a real-time manner to create or update one or more static “slate” data structures that are stored in a durable manner. |
