Consuming fragments of time-associated data streams

Abstract:

Disclosed are various embodiments for consuming fragments of time-associated data streams. A streaming gateway receives a request from a consumer via a network to obtain a stream of time-associated data. The gateway determines that a first fragment of the stream of time-associated data is stored in a data store. The first fragment is obtained from the data store and sent to the consumer via the network. The gateway determines that the stream of time-associated data is currently being received by an endpoint from a producer. A second segment of the stream is obtained from the endpoint and sent to the consumer via the network.
