# Jobs
|
|
|
|
The `immich-server` responds to API requests for data and files for the web and mobile app. To do this quickly and reliably, it offloads most other work to `immich-microservices` in the form of _jobs_. Simply put, a job is a request to process data in the background. Jobs are picked up automatically by microservices containers.

|
When a new asset is uploaded it kicks off a series of jobs, which include metadata extraction, thumbnail generation, machine learning tasks, and storage template migration, if enabled. To view the status of a job navigate to the Administration -> Jobs page.
|
|
|
|
Additionally, some jobs run on a schedule, which is every night at midnight. This schedule, with the exception of [External Libraries](/docs/features/libraries) scanning, cannot be changed.

Storage Migration job can be run after changing the [Storage Template](/docs/administration/storage-template.mdx), in order to apply the change to the existing library.
