A computer-implemented method, system, and computer-readable media are disclosed herein. In embodiments, the computer-implemented method may entail receiving, by a data service, live data associated with an entity. The entity may be, for example, a customer of the data service. The method may further include determining that a dual-queue node assigned to the entity is uninstantiated on the data service. As a result, a dual-queue node associated with the entity may be instantiated on the data service. The dual-queue node may be instantiated by initializing a live data queue, of the dual-queue node, in which to place the live data for processing and a stale data queue, of the dual-queue node, in which to store a persistent backup of the live data. The method may then route the live data to the dual-queue node. The dual-queue node may then process the live data. Additional embodiments are described and/or claimed.
