Job priorities

Choose which due Jobs are claimed first within each Job Name.

• Use signed numeric priorities, with higher numbers claimed first.
• Keep priorities through retries, rescheduling, and recurring runs.
• Inspect priorities and change pending Jobs individually or in a selection through Management and Dashboard.

See priority changes.

Management API

Use the Management API with your HTTP framework through an adapter.

• Describe the HTTP API with OpenAPI.
• Use application authentication and permissions for each action.
• Integrate with Express through the Management Adapter.

See Management API setup.

Dashboard

Inspect and manage Jobs through a Dashboard served from your application.

• Serve prebuilt assets with the Express Dashboard Adapter.
• Inspect Queue Views, Jobs, payloads, and scheduler health.
• Share filtered Job lists and run individual or bulk actions.
• Use application authentication and API-enforced permissions.

See Dashboard setup.

Planned

Shared rate limits

Control how quickly Jobs start across Scheduler Instances.

• Share a start-rate budget per Job Name across instances.
• Keep due Jobs pending while the shared budget is exhausted.
• Expose rate policies and throttling through Management and Dashboard.

Orchestration and pipelines

Define how related Jobs run in sequence or depend on each other.

• Add APIs for coordinating dependent Jobs.
• Define pipelines through configuration.
• Track progress through Job events and the Management API.

Operational scale

Add controls for applications with larger Job backlogs or multiple tenants.

• Group Jobs by namespace or tenant.
• Support standalone Dashboard deployment and Docker packaging.

Additional processing policies and Management Adapters will be considered when there is clear demand.
