Abstract:
1. A method for processing a data stream in a network environment, comprising: at a server computer, creating a plurality of input threads, wherein each input thread of the plurality of input threads listens to a physical port from which the input thread receives data; receiving an input data stream of file data at a physical input associated with a first input thread of the plurality of input threads; producing filtered data from the input data stream by passing the input data stream through a filter associated with the first input thread; identifying, by an agent associated with the first input thread, each event in the filtered data, wherein the agent creates a message for each event containing text from the event and a generic data structure corresponding to the event for a thread job manager associated with the first input thread; creating, by the thread job manager associated with the first input thread, a process for transforming the messages according to the generic data structure into output data, wherein input data in the first data stream is of a first document format and the output data is of a second document format; creating an output pipeline for the process; and executing the process to produce a physical output object through the output pipeline.
