Basic Architecture

YSoft SafeQ Spooler is a new job spooling component different from YSoft SafeQ FlexiSpooler it is designed to be cross-platform and include the YSoft SafeQ UI - a new UI experience for the user. 

Spooler consists of:

• YSoft.SafeQ.Spooler service: service/daemon that has similar functionalities to YSoft SafeQ FlexiSpooler service,
• YSoft.SafeQ.SafeQ UI process: a new cross-platform UI experience for the user substituting existing YSoft SafeQ Desktop Interface.

In order for YSoft SafeQ Spooler to function with existing YSoft SafeQ 6 deployments it needs a server counter-part (a connector to rest of YSoft SafeQ 6 components if you will), we call this component YSoft SafeQ Job Service. In the future YSoft SafeQ Job Service will be used for many more functionalities and has part in a broader architecture revisioning.

YSoft SafeQ  Job Service

Job Service has following responsibilities:

• Handles connection with spoolers
• Manages job metadata between Spooler Controller and Spooler
• Communicates with Spooler Controller using YMQ
• Hosts IdentityServer to allow Spooler authentication
• Provides distributed layer which contains Job id x Spooler id mapping and Spooler id x Job Service id mapping
• Sends a configuration file to update the Site Server list in Spooler
