Task Scheduling is Here - Automate your Custom Functions with Ease
We’re delighted to introduce our newest feature, Task Scheduling, which is designed to provide our customers with a simple and powerful way to automate their custom functions.
Benefits
- More autonomy: Task Scheduling enables you to automate your custom functions with ease, without having to worry about complex scheduling.
- Less error-prone: Task Scheduling eliminates the need for functions to manually schedule themselves, reducing the likelihood of errors.
Features
- Ability to schedule functions at specific intervals
- Option to set a start time for scheduled tasks
- Option to schedule tasks based on a start time and an interval after the start time (in seconds)
- Ability to run tasks only when triggered, with no schedule
Example
Imagine you have a digital medical application that needs to send weekly reports to a hospital. With Task Scheduling, you can set up a schedule for this function to run every week without having to worry about manually triggering it. The function contains the functionality to send that report, and you can rest assured that it will be executed at the desired interval, without any manual intervention.
Improved Service Discovery
We are very pleased to announce that we have improved the Extra Horizon Service Discovery functionality.
Being an Extra Horizon customer also means that we make sure your medical device is running on the latest technological architecture. You don’t need to worry about these things yourself - we take care of it for you. The Service Discovery is included in the infrastructure of all Extra Horizon clusters, so no setup is required.
Benefits
- Increased availability guarantees: Mitigating any risks of unavailability is always a high priority for us. Our new Service Discovery functionality is using the latest technology and will ensure your medical device will always be up and running, ready to perform!
- Faster API response time: Optimised routing of requests, leading to faster API response times.
