1. A device, comprising:
one or more processors configured to:
receive a plurality of data items that are each associated with a respective identifier;
monitor a quantity of data items, of the plurality of data items, associated with each respective identifier over a particular period of time;
determine, based on the monitoring, that a first quantity, of a first set of data items associated with a first identifier, does not exceed a threshold quantity;
determine, based on the monitoring, that a second quantity, of a second set of data items associated with a second identifier, exceeds the threshold quantity;
generate a first output key corresponding to the first set of data items;
generate, based on determining that the second quantity exceeds the threshold quantity:
a second output key corresponding to a first portion of the second set of data items, and
a third output key corresponding to a second portion of the second set of data items;
output the first set of data items to a first containerized system that is associated with the first output key;
output the first portion of the second set of data items to a second containerized system that is associated with the second output key; and
output the second portion of the second set of data items to a third containerized system that is associated with the third output key.
