Excessive use of crons is a devops (hate the word) smell. You get reliant on their side-effects and to migrate to other solutions you need enormous amounts of testing and legacy interfaces. The most obvious downside to a cron is the at least 1m interval. On average you are waiting 30s for something which already should be there. Of course it's perfect for things like reporting which make sense for certain intervals. Using it for mail queues and stuff.. bad times. |
