You're designing a process used to notify multiple users of marketing campaigns. These campaigns occur infrequently, but are sent out to the hundreds of customers that are stored in your app.

How should you best design your process model to send the emails whilst using a common email process model (CMN_SendEmail), to be most performant?

The outputs of this node are not required for the main process.

Show Suggested Answer Hide Answer
Suggested Answer: A

Using 'Start Process' as the node type and enabling 'Automatically run multiple instances of this node' for all users on the mailing list launches each email as a separate, lightweight process, maximizing performance and scalability, especially since the main process does not require the outputs.

I feel like we practiced a similar question where we had to choose between start processes and subprocesses, and I think the subprocess option is usually more efficient.

I'm not entirely sure, but I think using a synchronous subprocess could slow things down since it waits for each email to be sent before moving on.

I remember we discussed the importance of using asynchronous processes for tasks that don't need immediate feedback, so option B might be the best choice.
