System for sessionizing log events from a streaming log event source and reducing latency

A method, comprising:

• capturing, by a system including a processor, a plurality of watch time event data related to user consumption of a set of media content items;
• and
• summarizing, by the system, the watch time event data into a finalized playback record according to a finalization criteria is a function of a summation of an event time of a most recent event data of the plurality of event data, a logsaver latency time value indicative of a time delay associated with saving event data, and an inactivity threshold time value, in comparison to a current time.

A non-transitory computer-readable medium having instructions stored thereon that, in response to execution, cause a system including a processor to perform operations comprising:

• accumulating a plurality of event data related to user consumption of a set of media content items;
• and
• summarizing, by the system, the event data into a finalized playback record according to an dynamically set time window that is a function of a summation of an event time of a most recent event data of the plurality of event data, a logsaver latency time value indicative of a time delay associated with saving event data, and an inactivity threshold time value, in comparison to a current time.
