Using Scheduler Functions (Requires Cache OM)
You schedule simple events using scheduler functions. Events scheduled using these functions are sent to their default destination.
You might use the event scheduler functions instead of a time event in the following cases:
- If you need to send any event on a schedule, you must use the scheduler. If you schedule a memory-only simple event the schedule is persisted. If you schedule a memory only time event (using the time event's function, not the scheduler functions) then the schedule is not persisted.
- If you need to create many of schedules at one time, performance is better using the event scheduler functions.
- Because schedule management and event sending can be handled by a cache agent, fewer resources in the inference agents are required compared to time events. Additionally, with backing store enabled the schedules are only loaded into memory a batch at a time, reducing the total memory requirement compared to time events.
