RE: ODBC from IFS

["Metz, Zak" <Zak_Metz@xxxxxx>]

I would like to design a relatively generic model for a data
queue-driven, dynamically scaling subsystem.

It would seem obvious that the main part of this is the job that
monitors the queue depth or response time and starts or ends additional
jobs as needed. But, that's about all I have worked out.

Has anyone developed a generic design for such a thing. I'm thinking it
would be controlled by parms such as minimum/maximum number of jobs, min
delay before additional job started, min depth before additional job
started, how often to check...but if someone has already gone through
this exercise perhaps they would consider sharing what a flexible set of
controlling parameters consists of, and any other gotchas?

And is there a shorter term for this sort of thing besides "data
queue-driven, dynamically scaling subsystem?"

Kind regards,
Zak Metz
