CronJobs

CronJobs in Kubernetes are used for running jobs on a scheduled basis, similar to cron jobs in Unix-like operating systems. They allow you to define periodic tasks that should run at specific times or intervals, automating repetitive tasks such as backups, sending emails, or performing batch processing. CronJobs are useful for the time-based scheduling of Kubernetes Jobs, ensuring tasks are performed consistently without manual intervention.

Use Case of CronJobs -

• Scheduled Backups
• Periodic Tasks
• Reporting & Monitoring
• Batch Processing
• Task Automation
