I’m seeing these in the `Jobs` application and am wondering what they are and what they do? ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/flex001/uploads/nextworld/original/1X/7382c8408caaaf2bc8f653ca2ca52fbb0d8bf65e.jpeg) ---

The `Data Sync Orchestrator` job originates from a Connectors feature, which falls under the integrations umbrella. In the `Connector Configuration Management` app, a user can configure several different types of connectors that allow Nextworld to interact with an external system and its data. One type of connector we support is called a `Batch Data Sync`. This allows data to be brought over from an external system and stored in a native Nextworld table on a configurable cadence (i.e. Manual, Recurring, Once). Having this data brought over from an external system then allows users to interact with their data with all the native Nextworld functionality. The `Data Sync Orchestrator` job is the system pulling that external data into our database.
