For that and some other reasons I've been thinking about centralizing the scheduling of all of our jobs.

Jenkins isn't really intended for this, but it could work.


Enterprise grade job scheduling software is REALLY expensive, but also kind of overkill.

I actually use Jenkins to perform a backup of my Git (privately hosted) repository and ship an archive off to AWS S3.

This is one of those areas where technically Jenkins can do it, and you might
be able to hack something into place, but it's not its core competency.

I have been looking to move some workloads, especially those around the Hadoop
ecosystem, to Apache Airflow (https://airflow.apache.org/) which I believe is a
bit better suited for general purpose job and dependent task scheduling.


Cheers
