  • jobber

    An alternative to cron, with sophisticated status-reporting and error-handling (by dshearer)

  • And jobber is https://dshearer.github.io/jobber/doc/v1.4/ which has yaml specifying it and would make testing it much cleaner (rather than trying to one line a dc script)... but many of these also suffer from: https://github.com/dshearer/jobber

  • argo

    Workflow Engine for Kubernetes

  • Yea... I personally like the jobber format which is similar to argo workflows ( https://github.com/argoproj/argo-workflows/blob/master/examples/coinflip.yaml ) which can get triggered by an event which can look like cron ( https://argoproj.github.io/argo-workflows/cron-workflows/ ).

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.
