I love all the options we have today.

At Cronitor we are seeing a lot of users migrating to Airflow, Kubernetes cron jobs, and scheduled lambdas.

Like databases, different workloads will benefit from different guarantees. Look for the right tool for the job, not the right tool for all time.

As someone migrating from airflow back to cron jobs (I can do that doesn't really need to be distributed), I can't agree more. And the important thing is to look at the complexity of the solution as well.
