Whether you're developing a distributed computational application or service that issues direct [REST API](https://docs.microsoft.com/rest/api/batchservice/) calls or you're using another one of the [Batch SDKs](batch-apis-tools.md#batch-service-apis), you'll use many of the resources and features discussed in this article.

The following sections discuss the resources of Batch that enable your distributed computational scenario. Some of these--accounts, compute nodes, pools, jobs, and tasks--are required by all solutions that use the Batch service. Others, like job schedules and application packages, are helpful but optional, features.

* Learn about the [Batch APIs and tools](batch-apis-tools.md) available for building Batch solutions.
43
-
* Learn the basics of developing a Batch-enabled application using the [Batch .NET client library](quick-run-dotnet.md) or [Python](quick-run-python.md). These quickstarts guide you through a sample application that uses the Batch service to execute a workload on multiple compute nodes, and includes using Azure Storage for workload file staging and retrieval.

-
* Download and install [Batch Explorer][https://azure.github.io/BatchExplorer/] for use while you develop your Batch solutions. Use Batch Explorer to help create, debug, and monitor Azure Batch applications.

[Job schedules](https://docs.microsoft.com/rest/api/batchservice/jobschedule) enable you to create recurring jobs within the Batch service. A job schedule specifies when to run jobs and includes the specifications for the jobs to be run. You can specify the duration of the schedule (how long and when the schedule is in effect) and how frequently jobs are created during the scheduled period.

A task is a unit of computation that is associated with a job. It runs on a node. Tasks are assigned to a node for execution, or are queued until a node becomes free. Put simply, a task runs one or more programs or scripts on a compute node to perform the work you need done.
