Claim:
1. A method of pre-processing real-time data to be processed by one or more real-time analytics services, the method comprising: receiving, at a stateless ingress node, data from one or more client devices, the data provided from a load balancer in front of stateless ingress nodes to balance incoming data over the stateless ingress nodes, wherein the stateless ingress node comprises one or more listeners that receive the data from the load balancer; transforming the data in real-time at the stateless ingress node, wherein the stateless ingress node performs stateless pre-processing to output transformed data, and wherein the stateless pre-processing performed by the stateless ingress node is separate from stateful real-time analytics performed by the one or more real-time analytics services; determining in real-time, at the stateless ingress node, a real-time analytics service for the transformed data; and forwarding in real-time the transformed data to the determined real-time analytics service for performance of the stateful real-time analytics.
