Handling multiple input streams

Discussion

What do you want to talk about?

As we near the completion of a first "full" data path (ingestion -> countertop -> caption appliance) it's worth thinking about how we want to handle multiple input streams.

Chris pointed out that this might be a very appropriate task of the countertop to coordinate; an individual appliance is spun up for each stream, and so the appliance itself does not have the burden of managing multiple streams at once.

This feels like an appropriate model; the only question is whether there might be an instance where an appliance might want access to both streams.

Creating this issue to have these discussions once we have the bandwidth to take it on.

This works now and is just part of the topology generation.

Additional sources generate additional internal streams / appliance instances per stream.
