How to Deduplicate Events with At-Least-Once Delivery in Python
Implements an exactly-once processing pattern for at-least-once event delivery by tracking seen event IDs in a set, skipping duplicates.
seen_ids = set()
def process_event(event_id: str, payload: dict) -> dict:
"""Process an event exactly once, ignoring duplicates."""
if event_id in seen_ids:
return {"status": "duplicate", "event_id": event_id}
seen_ids.add(event_id)
return {"status": "processed", "event_id": event_id, **payloa…How to Track Session Windows with Gap Timeout in Python
A Python class that groups events into sessions, closing a session when the gap between events exceeds a timeout threshold.
import time
class SessionWindow:
"""Track sessions with a gap timeout (mock)."""
def __init__(self, timeout_seconds=5):
self.timeout = timeout_seconds
self.session_start = None
self.last_event_time = None
self.event_count = 0
self.events = []

Build an event deduplicator that identifies duplicate inbox messages using SHA256 hashes and tracks duplicate counts per event type.
```python
import hashlib
import json
from collections import defaultdict
class EventDeduplicator:
def __init__(self):
self.seen_hashes = set()
self.duplicate_counts = defaultdict(int)
def process_event(self, event):
event_key = f"{event['event_id']}:{event['timestamp']}"
