Incrementally Delivering Fragmented Stream Data

One or more non-transitory computer-readable media comprising instructions that, when executed by one or more hardware processors, cause performance of operations comprising:

• responsive to receiving a first portion of a first frame:
• buffering the first portion of the first frame, wherein the first frame comprises (a) a first set of frame metadata and (b) a first payload;
• decoding at least part of the first set of frame metadata from the first portion of the first frame to determine at least one of:
• (a) a first frame type of the first frame or (b) a first size of the first payload;
• responsive to determining the first frame type of the first frame and/or the first size of the first payload:
• generating a first runtime object to represent the first frame, wherein the first runtime object comprises at least one of:
• (a) a first value indicating the first size of the first payload or (b) a second value indicating an amount of the first payload that that has been delivered to a first recipient;
• decoding a first part of the first payload from the first portion of the first frame;
• delivering the first part of the first payload to the first recipient;
• and
• updating the second value of the first runtime object to reflect the first part of the first payload being delivered to the first recipient;
• responsive to receiving a second portion of the first frame comprising a second part of the first payload:
• decoding the second part of the first payload from the second portion of the first frame;
• and
• delivering the second part of the first payload to the first recipient, wherein the second part of the first payload is delivered to the first recipient subsequent to the first part of the first payload being delivered to the first recipient.

A system comprising:

• at least one device including a hardware processor;
• the system being configured to perform operations comprising:
• responsive to receiving a first portion of a first frame:
• buffering the first portion of the first frame, wherein the first frame comprises (a) a first set of frame metadata and (b) a first payload;
• decoding at least part of the first set of frame metadata from the first portion of the first frame to determine at least one of:
• (a) a first frame type of the first frame or (b) a first size of the first payload;
• responsive to determining the first frame type of the first frame and/or the first size of the first payload:
• generating a first runtime object to represent the first frame, wherein the first runtime object comprises at least one of:
• (a) a first value indicating the first size of the first payload or (b) a second value indicating an amount of the first payload that that has been delivered to a first recipient;
• decoding a first part of the first payload from the first portion of the first frame;
• delivering the first part of the first payload to the first recipient;
• and
• updating the second value of the first runtime object to reflect the first part of the first payload being delivered to the first recipient;
• responsive to receiving a second portion of the first frame comprising a second part of the first payload:
• decoding the second part of the first payload from the second portion of the first frame;
• and
• delivering the second part of the first payload to the first recipient, wherein the second part of the first payload is delivered to the first recipient subsequent to the first part of the first payload being delivered to the first recipient.
