Question

Which is the best job scheduler to hit REST endpoints which also has UI??

Answer 1

HCL Workload Automation, is a robust enterprise-level solution for managing and automating workloads. This tool is available both for on-premise deployment and cloud-based utilization.

For cases where you have a limited number of tasks to execute, the Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) iteration of HCL Workload Automation provides a suitable alternative. Specifically, the cloud-based version, HCL Workload Automation on Cloud, caters to scenarios where a smaller volume of jobs must be orchestrated and managed effectively.

Answer 2

One option is IBM Workload Scheduler / HCL Workload Automation, an enterprise level workload automation solution available on-premise and on cloud.

If you just need to run few jobs you can consider using the SaaS version: IBM Workload Automation on Cloud: https://www.ibm.com/us-en/marketplace/workload-automation/details

If you want a light-weight solution, you can try our open-source and free QuartzDesk Executor webapp available on GitHub. It is a simple, yet powerful Java webapp based on Quartz. Out-of-the-box it comes with a UrlInvokerJob which is a generic Quartz job implementation that can do a POST to an arbitrary URL specified in the job data map (a map containing job configuration parameters).

QuartzDesk Executor does not have a UI, but for that, you can maybe use our QuartzDesk product. There are 3 editions available, one being completely free. Alternatively you can use any of the existing Quartz scheduler management solutions (google for "quartz scheduler manager or gui").
