Classification: CPC G | IPC G

Claim 18:
19. Non-transitory computer readable media comprising computer-executable instructions that, when executed by a computing system of a data intake and query system, cause the computing system to:
receive, by the data intake and query system that includes one or more processors, a query, wherein the query identifies a set of data to be processed for the query and a manner of processing the set of data identified by the query;
based at least in part on the query, identify a set of bucket identifiers stored in a bucket data catalog, wherein the bucket data catalog indicates the set of data identified by the query is stored by a set of buckets of a plurality of buckets stored in a remote shared storage system, wherein the set of bucket identifiers correspond to the set of buckets;
based at least in part on identifying the set of bucket identifiers, generate a bucket-search assignment for a worker node, wherein to generate the bucket-search assignment, execution of the computer-executable instructions further causes the computing system to assign a subset of the set of bucket identifiers to a worker node identifier corresponding to the worker node; and
instruct, based on the bucket-search assignment, the worker node to search a subset of the set of buckets corresponding to the subset of the set of bucket identifiers.
