- Job chains can be seen as an assembly line on which multiple job nodes are passed, with each job making up one step in the processing of a chain.
- Job chains allow to the reuse the same of jobs in multiple different job chains with different parameter sets.
- Job chains allow to map dependencies, e.g. by continued processing with different job nodes depending on the execution result of previous job nodesdependencies to be mapped by, for example, causing processing to continue at different job nodes according to result returned from the processing of a job node.
- Job chains enable complex workflow patterns such as Split & Sync, : see Example showing the synchronization of multiple job chains
- Nested job chains can be used to control and parallelize the execution of multiple job chains.
