How to change snaplex dynamically based upon usage?

Question

While executing child pipeline I want to fetch all the snaplex available and assign them based on the usage to the child pipeline. So far I am able to randomize the snaplex while spawning the clild pipeline. Any help is appreciated.

I'm not sure what exactly the requirement is but if performance is what you are concerned with then I would suggest running child pipelines on the same plex as the parent.

As per SnapLogic documentation -

When running a parent and child Pipeline on the same node, data is not transferred over a network, which improves the performance of the Pipeline execution.

This is because -

When using the Pipeline Execute Snap, if you specify a different Snaplex to run a child Pipeline, then the input documents and Pipeline parameters are passed (through the control plane using encrypted transport) to a node in the designated Snaplex.
