US Patent 10009251 Tuple traffic management

Disclosed aspects relate to tuple traffic management in a stream computing environment to process a stream of tuples using a set of control group data with respect to a set of operation-system-level virtualization and resource isolation containers. The set of control group data may be collected with respect to a set of containers in the stream computing environment. A tuple flow model may be determined with respect to the set of containers in the stream computing environment based on the set of control group data. The stream of tuples may be processed using the tuple flow model with respect to the set of containers in the stream computing environment.
