hi,

what is the difference between server jobs and parallel jobs

basically server jobs can run and compile on DS serverand parallel jobs on unix.Sever jobs can run on SMP systemsand parallel jobs on mpp and clusters system,and performance wise parallel is good.Server jobs operate in sequential mode and Parallel in pipeline and partition.

IS THEY ANY OTHER DIFFERENCE

the first and formost difference is- both are different products with different architecture. Both have their own strengths and weaknesses.

on your comments:

basically server jobs can run and compile on DS serverand parallel jobs on unix

not true. Probably you should read the documentation.

performance wise parallel is good

performance wise -server jobs can perform better when data volume is low.

Server jobs operate in sequential mode and Parallel in pipeline and partition

You can achive pipeline and partition parallelism in server jobs too. Using inter process row buffering/IPC and link partitioner/collector respectively.

All three questions seems to be interview questions. you will get all these in DS documentaion
