Working with Queues
This topic describes how to work with job queues.
Queues consist of functionally related jobs that can be managed together as a group. Creating queues allows you to efficiently set priorities per job groups as opposed to single jobs which can be extremely important in complex systems executing a large number of asynchronous tasks.
