Use scripts to process buffered data

Scripts can be synchronous or asynchronous. The synchronous mode is the default choice and represents serial script execution by the AppEngine in the course of calling the Execute method of all ApplicationObjects that are on-scan in the AppEngine.

Synchronous mode requires that all scripts execute deterministically and quickly enough to prevent an AppEngine over-scan condition.

Important: For scripts that process buffered data, it is strongly recommended that you configure scripts as asynchronous execution type. Processing buffered data may be time consuming and exceed the script execution time limit. See Scripting tips and best practices for more information.
