An event processing system for processing events in an event stream is disclosed. The system can execute instructions to receive a continuous query, apply a transformation to the continuous query to generate a query plan for the continuous query, transform the query plan using a transformation algorithm to generate a transformed query plan, receive a micro-batch stream of input events related to an application, process the input events of the micro-batch stream based at least in part on the transformed query plan to generate a set of output events related to the application, and store the set of output events related to the application in an output queue.
