Job metadata refers to the additional information or attributes associated with a job in a job scheduling system. It provides context and descriptive details about the job, enabling better management, monitoring, and control of the job execution process.
Job metadata usually includes details like job name, job description, job owner, job schedule, job dependencies, job parameters, job results, job status, and job history.
Job metadata plays a crucial role in managing applications and administering jobs within a scheduling system. It helps users, administrators, and monitoring tools understand, track, and control the behavior of job execution. This in turn makes for more efficient job management, troubleshooting, and analysis.
