I guess it is more one or the other depending on the use case.

I've been synchronizing local data to remote data using NFS and Syncthing for a while now instead of doing batches of rclone, if you were referring to this use case.

Woh! golden feedback, we should look at doing this too. Appreciate your follow up thanks you!
We are considering. but it makes us migrate all 'stupid' jobs into API that can be triggered from cronhub.io.
that's sadly what we do nowadays, but this is quite an hack somehow; there are hard limits in the monitoring features, not a lot of overview analytics viz too.

Our core issue is that it is a too much tech software, we would like to have PM/PO looking at the health status of things. We could build a dashboard about jobs status elsewhere for sure. But we are hoping to find a better tech to deliver, run and monitor jobs, all in one.

interested about dogwrap, seems very generic for a various cases.

How do you deal with the CICD/delivery of your CRON code then using crontab?

Monitoring solved, how do you deal with the CICD/delivery of your CRON code then?
Very big data alternative!
I didn't know this one, I'll take a look at it, thanks!

I found it quickly, but language tied (ruby in this case) :/
From 5 minutes to 24h mainly.

Some jobs have crazy deps, like puppeteer or selenium, I wonder if you can setup complex environment dependencies with FaaS (docker base image maybe?)

Nice work !

good call about 07 numbers being more attributed to youngers. I took the 06 range to maximize the chance to get valid/active numbers.

true, my point is more about the tendency of using groups of people to quickly share. Which SMS does not do properly.

Not in France actually, we mainly use WhatsApp as a main message app; nobody uses SMS nowadays

What was interesting in my writing is that a simple API request quota could be preventing me from scraping this much.
