Definition

The operating mode can be used to control the intervals at which the background job is to be started.

  • Periodically

    The background job is scheduled periodically with the specified interval.

  • Load-driven (dynamic)

    The intervals at which the background job is to be started can be defined with respect to the content of the event queue. You should, for example, schedule the background job for a shorter interval if there are still events in the event queue after a processing run. You should choose a longer interval if the event queue contains no more events.

    The interval changing dynamically means that the system load can be reduced since the background job is started less frequently. However, it can also lead to events being put into the event queue, but their processing being delayed further because of the longer interval.
