Output queues

An output queue stores the output jobs before they are delivered to the target applications (printers, faxes, etc.). It queues output jobs if the StreamServer creates more output jobs than it can deliver. In case of an unexpected StreamServer shutdown, it also provides robustness since it enables the StreamServer to reprocess the output jobs when it is restarted.

Several StreamServer applications can share the same output queue. This provides possibilities for scaling over multiple StreamServer applications.

If several versions of a Project are run simultaneously, the version number is automatically added to the queue names (output_1, output_2, etc.). This will make sure that version <x> and version <y> of a Project using the same Platform and output queues do not steal jobs from each other.
