Prioritize Processing Tasks in MDP

Use the processing queue to prioritize your data stream processing tasks. With the processing queue, you can drag an urgent task to the top of the queue to prioritize it over other tasks. In the processing queue, a task is a collection of data streams with the same date range, triggered to process together. By default, all scheduled tasks, regardless of their date range, are grouped as one task that takes precedence over any manually triggered tasks. The Processing Queue doesn’t determine the order in which processing tasks are executed, and it doesn’t guarantee that prioritized data streams are completed first. Rather, the Priority Queue ensures that the prioritized task receives priority if any tasks compete for the same resources. However, if the tasks don’t compete for the same resources, the tasks can be processed simultaneously.
