ShedLock

The PowerAuth Server uses ShedLock to synchronize scheduled operations. See the SchedLock documentation for the details.

Table Documentation

This chapter explains individual tables and their columns. The column types are used from PostgreSQL dialect, other databases use types that are equivalent (mapping is usually straight forward).
