Ask HN: Anyone using or have opinions on "enterprise" job schedulers?
Basically cron but centralized. Useful for organizations with lots of applications because:
- Development teams don't have to roll their own solution - Single interface for teams to pause jobs during maintenance windows - Easily see job failures across an entire organization - More advanced job orchestration and workflow capabilities
There are many ways to solve this (purpose-built applications, k8s jobs, cloud services, scheduled pipelines, etc). I am curious about what others have seen or are using. Very unfortunately, I have mainly seen Jenkins used for this. There must be something better out there. redwood.com
Centralized scheduling, job chaining, workflow management, used to be called Cronacle.
