Abstract: Systems and methods for mitigating latency. For example, prior to ingesting a data stream, the system extracts a communication identifier from the data stream. The system may then compare the communication identifier to a state-specific communication reference directory that indicates a current state a given communication, a cloud component currently processing the communication (or a portion thereof), and/or other information used to sort the communication. As the state-specific communication reference directory ensures proper triaging of the data stream, the system is not reliant on maintaining session persistence.
