Update job-scheduler.md
Browse files Browse the repository at this point in the history
Coming newly into the orchestration team, I am updating the initial description of the scheduler types to better align with how users may view the product today: 1. we refer to merge jobs as merge jobs (and it is an explicit category in the UI) so I think it would be useful to call out that term in the beginning, so people associate that type of job with its name and 2. another event-based job is job completion (another explicit category in the UI) and I couldn't tell how that fit into the initial description, so added that as well. Feel free to revise, just wanted to flag those two points!

The scheduler enables both cron-based and event-driven execution of dbt commands in the user’s data platform. Specifically, it handles:

- Cron-based execution of dbt Cloud jobs that run on a predetermined cadence
- Event-driven execution of dbt Cloud CI jobs triggered by pull requests to the dbt repo
- Event-driven execution of dbt Cloud jobs that run based on the completion of another job
- Event-driven execution of dbt Cloud CI jobs triggered by pull requests to the dbt repo (e.g. "merge jobs")
- Event-driven execution of dbt Cloud jobs triggered by API
- Event-driven execution of dbt Cloud jobs manually triggered by a user to "Run Now"
