Embodiments of the disclosure provide a method and system for processing data such as a stream of tuples. One embodiment is directed toward a method for managing a stream of tuples. The method can include receiving the stream of tuples to be processed by a plurality of stream operators operating on one or more computer processors. The method can include routing the stream of tuples to a plurality of output ports, the output ports each communicate with a processing branch. The method can include receiving performance data of the stream of tuples from a measuring stream operator that measures the processing branch. The method can include determining weights to assign to each output port based on the performance data. The method can also include modifying the routing of the stream of tuples through the plurality of output ports as a function of the weight of each output port.
A system for processing a stream of tuples, each tuple having one or more attributes, comprising:
