The present disclosure relates to methods, systems, and software for performing parallel processing on a set of business object actions forming a batch process. The batch process may be performed by compiling a group of independent work packages, each work package representing a discrete business object action. The work packages are clustered and an individual session for each work package is created. The work packages are then executed in parallel by a framework for parallel processing, external of an application requesting the batch process. Each session is closed after processing of the work package is completed, and the cluster is closed after processing of the work packages is completed.
