    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.

    - 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).
