The Background Tasks Manager provides a list of all background tasks that users have initiated. These tasks are managed by the Lucity Task Runner and are generally tasks that require more processing power or may run on several machines simultaneously. Background tasks that need more processing power are offloaded from the Web server to the Services server.
Types of background tasks include:
