  • Patent number: 11921726
    Abstract: Techniques for storing and processing large volumes of data by increasing the number of partitions that customers can allocate and use for their streams while minimizing the physical footprint of the partitions is disclosed. In certain examples, the stream partitions are created as different logical partitions on a physical partition in a physical storage cluster of a distributed message streaming system. The disclosed system provides an improved process for reading messages stored in different logical partitions of a physical partition by identifying partition chunks in a physical partition that comprise subsets of messages associated with a logical partition and filtering out partition chunks that do not contain messages associated with the logical partition. The disclosed system reduces the amount of the physical partition that needs to be read to retrieve messages stored in different logical partitions thereby improving the overall performance of the distributed message streaming system.
