Products that do what Kala – Modern Job Scheduler Written in Go does
Kala is a simplistic, modern, and performant job scheduler written in Go. It lives in a single binary and does not have any dependencies. Kala was inspired by Chronos ( https://github.com/mesos/chronos ), developed by Airbnb, but the need for a Chronos for the rest of us. Chronos is built on top of Mesos, and is fault tolerant and distributed by design. These are two features which Kala does not have, as it was built for smaller deployments. It has a simple JSON over HTTP API, so it is language agnostic. It has a Web UI, Job Stats, Configurable Retries, uses ISO 8601 Date…

A large part of our (Real Kinetic's) business is helping organizations implement platform engineering, but we've found the existing tooling to be lacking. For IaC, Terraform state becomes a pain because TF treats infrastructure as "one-shot" commands. The Kubernetes controller model provides a nicer approach to managing infrastructure, but the tooling here is also lacking. For configuration management, Helm just doesn't really scale with complexity, nor does Kustomize. For resource orchestration, Crossplane is a step in the right direction but still has challenges and limitations. As a…

Hey HN! Launching Kali today and I'm super excited to iterate on this. I hate scheduling and my gf got sick of managing my calendar for me, so I made an AI do it instead. :) Please let me know what you think!

Setting up Kafka or such enterprise oriented software with their clusters or dedicated servers is heavy and bothering enough that most small teams or indie hackers skip it entirely and making compromise to use in-memory queues. I wanted something in between: a persistent queue that is simple to run (one binary, which makes one sqlite db), gets real fault isolation and crash recovery due to Elixir, easy to inspect (open ezra.db in any SQLite browser and see every task), and requires no new client library - it speaks the Redis Streams wire protocol, so any Redis client in any language just…

In my last project, I was struggling to create and monitor cron jobs. So, instead of creating hundreds of standalone scrips and executing them with cron, I decided to turn those scripts into multiple endpoints. Next, I created a single service that I could schedule HTTP requests to those endpoints and monitor its execution. No more scripts, now everything is endpoints that I can run manually at any time I turned this scheduler service into a Micro-SaaS so you don't have to build it yourself: beew.io I know you can Schedule HTTP requests with Zapier but come on... I will not pay 50 bucks for…

Hi HN! I built NaturalCron because I was tired of writing and debugging CRON syntax like: /5 * * 5 Now you can write something human-readable in .NET: var expression = new NaturalCronExpression("every 5 minutes on friday"); Or use a Fluent Builder for strong typing and IDE support: var expression = NaturalCronExpressionBuilder .Every().Minutes(5) .On(DayOfWeek.Friday) .Build(); Great for: - Code-based scheduling in .NET apps - Overriding schedules from configs or databases - Displaying easy-to-read rules in UIs NuGet: https://www.nuget.org/packages/NaturalCron…

I'd like to share a project I've been working on for the past few months. It's a distributed workflow engine written entirely in Go. Some highlights: * Tasks are executed in a Docker container * Can run stand-alone or distributed * Highly extensible * Able to enforce limits (CPU/RAM) per task * Web UI Would love the get your feedback on it, and find out if this could be useful.
