    Background jobs cover work that runs outside the request that asked for it. Use in-process tasks for work you can afford to lose on a restart. Use the TaskIQ worker and scheduler for work that must survive a restart, runs on a schedule, or scales separately.

    • How jobs work: When to use in-process tasks versus the TaskIQ worker and scheduler, and how identity carries into each run.
    • Worker and scheduler: Durable TaskIQ tasks run by the 10xgraph worker and scheduler, started from Python or over HTTP, with schedules, cancel and progress.
    • In-process tasks: Fire-and-forget async tasks launched from a node with BackgroundTaskManager, without blocking the response.
