A method for real-time data processing is described. The method being implemented on a computer system having one or more physical processors programmed with computer program instructions which, when executed, perform the method. The method comprising allocating a real-time dataset associated with a real-time data interaction to a node in a chain of nodes, wherein each node is representative of a user in the real-time data interaction; setting a node status of the node for the real-time dataset to pending; and independently of (i) a node status of the one or more upstream nodes and (ii) a node status of the one or more downstream nodes: periodically determining, by the computer system, an availability status of the node; and in response to the availability status satisfying the criterion, setting the node status for the real-time dataset as settled.
