Workflow

Jobs with Parent/Child relationship

Workflows can be accomplished using the concept of jobs that are children of other jobs.

For example, if you have JOB A, which needs to wait for JOB B, and JOB C to be completed first, you can set JOB B, and JOB C to be children of JOB A. This means that regardless of which tube JOB B, or JOB C are on, JOB A will not be able to be reserved until they both have fully completed.

You can also set timeouts on parent jobs, so that even if all of their children jobs have not completed after X amount of time, they will become available.

Also, there is no limit to how many levels of parent/children jobs can be used, so you can make arbitrarily complex workflows within the queue.
