Open Source Job Scheduler with REST API

Question

Is there an open source task scheduler with a REST API for commercial use that will support features such as:

• The tree as a dependency on work
• Hold and Release
• Failed to repeat steps.
• Parallelism

Help will be appreciated :)

NOTE: we are looking for an open source alternative for TWS , Control-M , AutoSys .

Answer 1

JobScheduler seems to meet your requirements:

• Open Source: Open Source and Commercial Licenses
• Support API see: Web Services Integration
• Parallelism see: Organization of jobs and work chains

I think these areas are also covered (I downloaded and tried the application): see here

• The tree as a dependency on work
• Hold and Release
• Failed to repeat steps.

ProActive Scheduler is an open source task scheduler.

• part of the OW2 organization
• It is written in Java, so it comes with Java and a REST API
• It provides workflows that specify tasks with dependencies or more (loop, replication, branch), in case of failures, which you can control if the task should be canceled or restarted.
• Parallelism and distribution underlies it, with features such as, for example,

Commercial support is provided by Activeeon, ProActive (full disclosure: I work for Activeeon).

Dkron is a system service that runs scheduled jobs at specified intervals or times, just like the cron unix service, but spreads across multiple computers in a cluster. If the machine fails (leader), the follower will take over and continue to carry out the planned tasks without human intervention. Dkron is open source and freely available.
