Abstract

In accordance with embodiments disclosed herein, there are provided mechanisms and methods for batch processing in an on-demand service environment. For example, in one embodiment, mechanisms include receiving a processing request for a multi-tenant database, in which the processing request specifies processing logic and a processing target group within the multi-tenant database. Such an embodiment further includes dividing or chunking the processing target group into a plurality of processing target sub-groups, queuing the processing request with a batch processing queue for the multi-tenant database among a plurality of previously queued processing requests, and releasing each of the plurality of processing target sub-groups for processing in the multi-tenant database via the processing logic at one or more times specified by the batch processing queue.
