Find the guide for your platform
Every platform stops running a scheduled job in its own way, and none of them raises an error when it happens. Pick the guide that matches your platform below to see its real failure mode and the heartbeat that catches it.
Guides
-
Monitor a GitHub Actions scheduled workflow
Why GitHub Actions scheduled workflows silently stop, and how to detect it with a heartbeat ping that runs only when the job succeeds.
-
Monitor a Kubernetes CronJob
The specific ways a Kubernetes CronJob stops running without alerting anyone, and how to detect them with a heartbeat ping in the job container.
Every guide here is one platform of cron job monitoring. Start with the guide to free cron job monitoring, or compare plans on pricing.
