Distributed Scheduler

Introduction

Distributed Scheduler is used for cross-device component management. It allows the local device to access or control remote components, and enables app collaboration in distributed scenarios. Its main functions are as follows:

  • Remote ability startup: Starts an ability on a remote device.
  • Remote ability migration: Migrates an ability to a remote device.
  • Remote ability binding: Binds an ability on a remote device.
  • System service management: Provides system service startup, registration, and query on the local device as well as system service query on a remote device.
