Cloud Scheduler Overview

Application Service > Cloud Scheduler > Overview

Cloud Scheduler allows you to set various tasks to run on a schedule of your choice. You can execute a specific task one-time on a set schedule, or you can set a cron expression or interval to run it repeatedly. Tasks can be set up through API endpoints. The API endpoint allows you to freely enter the APIs of various services, not just the preset NHN Cloud services. A typical example of a task using Cloud Scheduler is copying an object from NHN Cloud Object Storage repeatedly based on the interval you set.

Schedules you set up in Cloud Scheduler can run only during the time period you want by specifying start and end dates, and you can easily stop them from running by disabling them if you don't want them to run. You can also set retry policies to rerun a job if it doesn't complete successfully, for example, due to an API call failure.

Cloud Scheduler is available in all regions of NHN Cloud.

This document guides you through the main features, how to use, and terminology of NHN Cloud's Cloud Scheduler service.
