Scheduling is an integral part of software development practices. Tools for scheduling jobs help development teams save time by scheduling recurring tasks — like modifying a database or sending out periodic emails — for execution at specified times. There are many to choose from, including cron for Linux, scheduled tasks for Windows, launchd for macOS, Jobber, and anacron.
The Codefresh Software Delivery Platform (CSDP) brings together the complete open source Argo toolset (Workflows, Events, CD, and Rollouts) into a single platform for enhanced efficiency and visibility of software deployments at massive scale. If you’re a new CSDP user, one of the first things you’ll do is install the CSDP runtime in one of your Kubernetes clusters.

Sending an invoice to my clients is crucial because it determines when and if I will get paid on time. If this sounds like a repetitive task that can eat deep into my productive hours, you are right.
Database backup protects your data by creating a copy of your database locally, or remotely on a backup server. This operation is often performed manually by database administrators. Like every other human-dependent activity, it is susceptible to errors and requires lots of time. Regularly scheduled backups go a long way to safeguarding your customers’ details in the case of operating system failure or security breach.
To supervise the behavior of distributed applications and track the origin of service failures and downtime, developers often use traditional monitoring technologies and tools. However, this approach can fall short in its ability to measure the overall health of modern cloud-native architectures, which can span multiple hosting environments and encompass hundreds of microservices.
After we launched the Codefresh Software Delivery Platform (CSDP) in February, we had a lot of questions from current users and the community about the relationship between CDSP and the Argo projects.
Automated testing is the foundation of your continuous integration practice. Automated testing clarifies the status of build processes for your team’s applications, ensures that tests run on every commit or pull request, and guarantees that you can make quick bug fixes before deploying to the production environment. In this tutorial, I will show you how to automate the testing of an Angular application.
