Scheduler Jobs in LS Central are used to automate the process of uploading new data into the recommendation model that is in use, and updating the corresponding model build.
There are two scheduler jobs available:
-
Update Model:
The code unit LS Recommends Sced. Build Job, 10016252, updates the catalog and the usage history for the model in use. Then a new build is created according to the Model Template. If the build is successful, the new build is set as the model's active build. It is recommended to run this job when the amount of new data is such that the recommendation can change. A rule of thumb is to run this job at least once a week.More specifically, this job uploads a new catalog and usage data to the model container and deletes the oldest build, if there are more than 18 builds included in the model. If the new build is successfully created, then usage files for the previous build are deleted and the new build is assigned to be the model's active build. That is, this new build is used to give recommendation until this job runs again.
- Update Model Data:
The code unit LS Recommends Sced. Data Job, 10016253, updates the catalog and the usage history of the model. It is recommended to run this job more frequently than the Update Model job, preferably at least every day except the day when the Update Model job is run.
