Rivusio Architecture

Overview

Rivusio is a high-performance data processing framework built on modern Python, designed for both synchronous and asynchronous data processing pipelines. This document outlines the core architecture and design principles.

Component Details

1. Stream Processing

  • AsyncStream/SyncStream: Handle data streaming with support for:
  • Batching
  • Windowing
  • Error handling
  • Backpressure (planned)

2. Pipeline

  • Pipeline Management: Orchestrates the flow of data through:
  • Multiple pipes
  • Error handling
  • Monitoring
  • Resource management

3. Pipes

  • Base Pipes: AsyncBasePipe and SyncBasePipe
  • Configurable Pipes: Support for configuration injection
  • Plugin System: Extensible architecture for custom pipes

4. Monitoring

  • Metrics Collection: Runtime statistics and performance metrics
  • Pipeline Monitor: Specialized monitoring for pipeline execution
  • Error Tracking: Comprehensive error handling and reporting

5. Plugin System

  • Registry: Central plugin management
  • Dynamic Loading: Runtime plugin discovery
  • Type Safety: Strong typing for plugin interfaces
