Another fun async I'm working on fleshing out is processing large batch uploads to us. We get, literally, 5 gig zip files, containing 200+ tar files. The idea is as we unzip the main file we send the individual tar files through an async gateway and untar them to a folder which then triggers a filesystem gateway which calls a perl proccess to process the file which creates a bulk insert file which fires another filesystem gateway that runs the bulk insert...the reason the perl process is in there is thats currently how we are processing the complete file...this is only concept right now but I am working on it in my spare time :)
