Execute same workflow in parallel

Let us say I have a workflow (wf_a) that is published in gallery. I want to execute the same workflow 'wf_a' in parallel.

I see the WF gets queued and executes in series.

Is it possible to execute the same workflow in parallel?

It may depend on how your server is configured, how many workers are set-up?

 

More importantly, what's behind this requirement? Some more background might help determine the best approach.

It is possible if you can launch the workflows using the AlteryxEngineCmd on the command line.

https://help.alteryx.com/20221/designer/run-workflows-command-line

 

Executing workflows this way will not send them to the servers queue, but will run them immediately instead. So you should use with caution and understand what your current server load is. But yes it is possible.

 

If I had to run them at the same time I might write a Python, Java or C# (.NET) program that had separate threads and then kick off the workflows making separate calls to the command line (and AlteryxEngineCmd.exe) in each thread.
