We kicked off our 2023 Community Table Talks on January 10th with our Workflow Best Practice Workshop where Product Manager of Platform and Workflow @Karnbir Singh broke down building real-time and batch workflows.
A real-time workflow is when you execute a workflow on single-record events while a batch workflow is when you execute workflows on process events or long-scheduled intervals. Below is a comparison chart:
|
Real-Time Workflow
|
Batch Workflow
|
- Execute on single record events
- Invoice Posted
- Order Processed
- Account Created
- Uses synchronous tasks
- Object Query
- Cancel Subscription
- Can execute quickly and handle concurrency well
|
- Execute on process events or long scheduled intervals
- Bill Run Completed
- Payment Run Completed
- Daily Gateway Reconciliation
- Uses asynchronous tasks
- Data Query
- Data Source Export
- Iterate: Chunk Size 50
- Can execute quickly and handle concurrency well with chunking and use of Zuora bulk APIs

About Community Workshops
Community Workshops are excellent opportunities for Zuora users of all skill levels to collaboratively work together to solve common challenges with the guidance of a Zuora subject matter expert and the support of your peers. Not only will you be able to hear how others are using Zuora, but it is also a great chance to share tips of your own.
