Claim 10:
11. The computer-implemented method of claim 1, further comprising:
receiving, by the intake ingestion buffer from the load balancer, a second service discovery message;
identifying that a third virtual machine in the intake ingestion buffer has a processing load less than the threshold level;
transmitting, to the load balancer, a private address of the third virtual machine;
receiving, at the third virtual machine from a streaming data processor, a request to read raw machine data corresponding to a first topic;
determining that the second virtual machine is associated with the first topic;
transmitting, to the streaming data processor, a private address of the second virtual machine;
receiving, at the second virtual machine from the streaming data processor, a request to read the raw machine data; and
transmitting, to the streaming data processor, the raw machine data in a compressed format.
