US Patent 11750451 Batch manager for complex workflows

A workflow may include function calls to functions executed with respect to instances of elements. Health checks of elements of the workflow may be performed with reference to topology such that health checks of elements are omitted where a health check is performed by a parent in the topology. Batch processing of stages of a workflow may be performed with commencement of a stage being initiated based on completion percentage and execution time of a previous stage. Tasks of each stage may be performed by a pool of workers that are reused with pool size being selected based on expected completion time of each stage.
