Alireza - which hypervisor do you use? If you use KVM you can use libvirt hooks

    Hi Alireza,
    
    Other approach I can think of is database triggers (can impact performance
    based on the jobs frequency).
    
    Take a look at the async_job table's insert and update operations which are
    performed on creating a new job (job status 0) and updated when job is
    complete with non-zero job status (1 - success, 2 - failed, 3 - cancelled)
    respectively.
    
    https://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.6/en/faqs-triggers.html  [a trigger
    could invoke the sys_exec() UDF.]
    
    Some ref for sys_exec UDF implementation below =>
