Process

Overview

Unless otherwise specified, GQL queries are executed as real-time processes. The results of processes are returned to the client once execution is complete and are not stored on the server.

Showing Processes

To retrieve currently running processes in the database:

GQL
TOP

It returns the following information for each process:

Field
Description
process_idID of the process.
process_queryQuery of the process.
durationThe duration in seconds for which the process has been running.
statusCurrent state of the process, which can only be RUNNING.

Stopping Processes

To stop a currently running process with id 2097156 in the database:

GQL
KILL 2097156
