AWS and Quartz for running scheduled tasks

Viewed 3789

Grettings everyone,

We are using AWS as PaaS and we have a couple of microservices deployed there. We got some new requirements to use some sort of cron jobs and schedulers.

For example we have the following scenarios:

  1. A user can set some rules when an event must happen. For example he wants to remove some oudated documents every Friday or once a week or every 2 days

  2. A user can configure creating copies of some objects every day till date A

I used to use Quartz before and it is the first idea that comes in my mind. I think that we can use it in AWS, cause it has RDS(with PostgreSQL for instance). But I would like to know what sort of other options can I use instead of Quartz(http://www.quartz-scheduler.org) + RDS? May be AWS has something out of the box that can do the same?

What do you think about http://docs.aws.amazon.com/batch/latest/userguide/what-is-batch.html in my case?

Thank you for your time and advice :)
