Resources to manage batch jobs
The Batch API exposes operations that enable client applications to define and execute user-defined workflows as batch jobs.
A user-defined workflow is a series of operations that are managed in sequence. These operations are defined as a series of task objects in JSON format. Each of these tasks represents an expensive or long-running process that is submitted to the workflow engine in a single request as part of a BATCH job for processing.
