To achieve its functionality, the Advancing Controller microservice utilizes database triggers in both PostgreSQL and OracleDB configurations.

A database trigger is a function that is automatically executed whenever specific events, such as inserts, updates, or deletions, occur in the database.

Usage

The Advancing Controller service is responsible for managing and optimizing the advancement process in the PostgreSQL or OracleDB databases. It ensures efficient workload distribution, performs cleanup tasks, and monitors the status of worker pods.

If a worker pod fails, the service reassigns its work to other pods to prevent process instances from getting stuck.

It is essential to have the Advancing Controller service running alongside the FlowX Engine for uninterrupted instance advancement.

It is important to ensure that both the FlowX Engine and the Advancing Controller microservices are up and running concurrently for optimal performance.
