Best way to schedule jobs in 2023?
rufus-scheduler gets the job done for me.

heroku has abandoned us
We actually ran a Dokku setup at my previous company and had a scheduler like that. We used https://github.com/jmettraux/rufus-scheduler as a third process (Rails app, workers, scheduler) and it worked well.

Newest way to handle Cron Jobs?
- It has built-in support for scheduled jobs using cron syntax, based on fugit, which also powers Rufus scheduler (that now that I look at it might also be a reasonable solution on its own).

Newest way to handle Cron Jobs?

Any idea how can we convert the string time to utc in ruby.
Unless you have very specific requirements that preclude this, you might want to run this task as a background job (e.g. Sidekiq worker) instead of as a rake task. This is a little bit of an opinion. There isn't one right way (indeed, that's one of the best things about Ruby). But in my career I've usually seen rake tasks used for things that need to be performed infrequently, and not as part of normal system operation. For things that need to be performed at regular intervals, and are part of the normal operation of the app, I usually see them set up as scheduled background jobs. You can use a background job gem (Sidekiq is wildly popular; Resque is another good one) and combine it with a scheduler (I'm personally a fan of the Clockwork gem but there are others out there).
What are some alternatives?
When comparing rufus-scheduler and Clockwork you can also consider the following projects:
Whenever - Cron jobs in Ruby
sidekiq-scheduler - Lightweight job scheduler extension for Sidekiq
Sidekiq-Cron - Scheduler / Cron for Sidekiq jobs
resque-scheduler - A light-weight job scheduling system built on top of Resque
minicron - 🕰️ Monitor your cron jobs
fugit - time tools (cron, parsing, durations, ...) for Ruby, rufus-scheduler, and flor
que-scheduler - A lightweight cron scheduler for the async job worker Que
