- JobSchedulerJobChainSplitter
- The Splitter Job is used to divide processing of a main Job Chain into a number of child Job Chain segments that are then processed in parallel.
- A Join or Sync Job may be defined later in the Job Chain to bring processing of these child segments back to a single thread.
- The Splitter Job generates separate Orders for each of the parallel child Job Chain segments. The Splitter Job will then move processing of the main Job Chain to a Join or Sync Job, if such a Job is defined later in the main Job Chain. See the Job Chains article for more information about the patterns that can be executed with the Splitter Job.
- JobSchedulerJoinOrders
Display feature availability StartingFromRelease 1.11.4 - The Join Job is used to start or continue processing of a main Job Chain after a predefined number of Orders running on child segments of a Job Chain have been completed.
- The Join Job is designed for a large number of parallel Orders and is significantly faster for this purpose than the Sync Job described below. Note that the Join Job can only be used within a Job Chain.
- Note also that the Join Job waits for a predefined number of Orders to be completed - it simply counts orders and does not require specific Orders.
- The Join Job provides a plug-in replacement for the Sync Job described below for sync/join operations within a Job Chain. This means that users of JobScheduler 1.11.4 or newer wishing to improve performance of the Sync Job can simply exchange the Jobs.
- JobSchedulerSynchronizeJobChains
- The main function of the Sync Job is to synchronize the execution of Jobs in different Job Chains.
- See the How To Synchronize Job Execution Across Job Chains article for information about using the Sync Job to synchronize the execution of Jobs in different Job Chains.
- Note that the Sync Job can also be used with JobScheduler versions 1.11.3 and older to synchronize the execution of Jobs within a Job Chain. However, the Sync Job is only suitable for use in situations where performance is not an issue - i.e. situations with only a small number of parallel Orders - typically one Order for each Job Chain.
