In accordance with implementations of the present disclosure, a computer-implemented method for forwarding data includes generating a backup of received live data. The backup of the received live data may be generated on non-volatile storage. The method further includes providing the received live data to a first data buffer for forwarding of the received live data, where a portion of the received live data is dropped prior to being forwarded. Based on the portion of the received live data being dropped, the portion of the received live data is recovered from the backup and the recovered portion of the received live data is provided to a second data buffer for forwarding of the recovered portion of the received live data.
