PLUGGABLE JOIN FRAMEWORK FOR STREAM PROCESSING

Disclosed are embodiments for providing batch performance using a stream processor. In one embodiment, a method is disclosed comprising receiving an event, such as a streaming event, from a client. The method determines that the event comprises a primary event and, if so, writes the primary event to a cache and returning the primary event to the client. The method later receives a second event from the client, the second event associated with the first event, annotates the second event based on the primary event, and returns the annotated second event to the client.
