Spring Batch Integration

Many users of Spring Batch may encounter requirements that are outside the scope of Spring Batch but that may be efficiently and concisely implemented by using Spring Integration. Conversely, Spring Integration users may encounter Spring Batch requirements and need a way to efficiently integrate both frameworks. In this context, several patterns and use-cases emerge, and Spring Batch Integration addresses those requirements.spring-doc.cn

The line between Spring Batch and Spring Integration is not always clear, but two pieces of advice can help: Thinking about granularity and applying common patterns. Some of those common patterns are described in this section.spring-doc.cn

Adding messaging to a batch process enables automation of operations and also separation and strategizing of key concerns. For example, a message might trigger a job to execute, and then sending the message can be exposed in a variety of ways. Alternatively, when a job completes or fails, that event might trigger a message to be sent, and the consumers of those messages might have operational concerns that have nothing to do with the application itself. Messaging can also be embedded in a job (for example, reading or writing items for processing through channels). Remote partitioning and remote chunking provide methods to distribute workloads over a number of workers.spring-doc.cn
