Borealis-R: A Replication-Transparent Stream Processing System for Wide-Area Monitoring Applications

Summary: Replication-based streaming over WAN uses multiple replicas; outputs may arrive first from any replica, but semantics stay same as nonreplicated runs. Selective deployment reduces latency and boosts availability in a live wide-area monitoring workload. (summarized by gpt-5-nano on Feb 09 2026)
