F.1 Overview

A Combined Result (such as Batch Result, Job Result, Sync Result, etc.) can be sent in different ways based on the type of configuration as follows.

Option 1: A Result with references to sub-results is useful when the use case requires:

Shorter turn-around time.

Receive single results as soon as they are generated.

Smaller size on each message.

Option 2: A Result including the complete content of the sub-results is useful when the use case requires:

Self-contained result.

Note: It is not suitable for a large number of sub-results.

Note: A Result including partial content of the sub-results is useful when the use case requires:

Tracking of progress for a batch, sync or job process.

Recommendation:

Option 1 is the recommended option.
