Scheduler

Stroom has two main types of schedule, a simple frequency schedule that runs the job at a fixed time interval or a more complex cron schedule.

Frequency Schedules

A frequency schedule is expressed as a fixed time interval. The frequency schedule expression syntax is stroom’s standard duration syntax and takes the form of a value followed by an optional unit suffix, e.g. 10m for ten minutes.

Cron Schedules

cron is a syntax for expressing schedules.

For full details of cron expressions see Cron Syntax

Stroom uses a scheduler called Quartz which supports cron expressions for scheduling.
