Jobs

The platform Job service is meant to allow hosting of ad-hoc computational jobs with the added value of taking responsbility for features such as data ingress/egress, lifecycle management and consumption logging.

The service is not meant to be tied to a single technology, rather it should serve as a thin wrapper around different computational infrastructure providers. In the first stage of its development the Job service uses Kubernetes in Azure (AKS) for running the jobs.

The service provides also the posibility to execute jobs according to a defined schedule - so called cron jobs.
