We refer to the pattern that results in this type of job chain as a "diamond" pattern. Such patterns can occur more than once in a job chainJob Chain: both sequentially, as shown in the diagram above, in parallel and nested. They can also be combined with other job chain patterns such as emerald or cross-over patterns (see Example showing the synchronization of multiple job chains).
