The Agents function Several new agents have been created for the automatic batch scaling feature. The new agents function mostly in the same way as their original counterparts with a few small differences, the main one being that the automatic batch scale agents have a new storage

The Batch Scaling feature in PE consists of the following new agents:

  • File Agent (Collection).

  • Inter-WF Agents (Collection and Forwarding).

  • Duplicate UDR Detection Agent.

  • Aggregation Agent.

The current documents for each of these agents are linked below.

the original agents and the same documentation is still applicable. There are however some minor differences that are important to understand:

  • All storage related to the new agents is in Kafka. This includes transactions and backend working storage.

  • Workflows containing these new agents can be scaled without any configuration changes. The system will automatically handle the re-balancing of which workflows use which partition.

The following new Agents have been created for the automatic batch scaling feature. See the links to the original Agent documentation for more details.

These agents differ from their corresponding “standard” agents:

Note!

You cannot mix standard agents with scaling agents in the same workflow. Workflows with standard agents save the state in PE. Workflows with batch agents save the state in Kafka.
