WORK ITEM MANAGEMENT IN CONTENT MANAGEMENT SYSTEMS

摘要

Techniques for work item management in distributed computing systems are disclosed herein. In one embodiment, a method can include receiving a user request from a user to initiate a provisioning process for a site to be hosted in the distributed computing system. In response to the received user request from the user, a work item containing one or more tasks to be performed in the provisioning process can be generated. The generated work item can then be enqueued in a work item queue with a future time that is later than a current time at which the generated work item is enqueued. Subsequently, the enqueued work item can be dequeued from the work item queue at a time earlier than the future time of the enqueued task to trigger performance of the one or more tasks contained in the work item related to the provisioning process of the site.
