Unlocking the Power of Scheduled Jobs in Spring Boot

Today we have another bit of a fullstack demo for those new to using Java Spring Boot. We'll be looking at Scheduled Jobs, also known as Scheduled Tasks. There are 3 options when using Scheduled in Java Spring Boot, and we'll go through all 3: 1. FixedDelay - The same thread executes the Job. If the thread is busy when the next execution is timed to occur, Spring Boot will wait until the thread is complete 2. FixedRate - The Job is executed by a different thread, with the help of "Async" annotation. This means that even when a Job has not finished before the next execution is launched, Spring Boot will create it using a different thread 3. Cron - Similar to Unix / Linux sysadmin work, we can use a "cron" expression to schedule a Job I hope you have a lot of fun with this project, and that it inspires you to pursue your own creative design! 👉👉Grab the source! https://github.com/wazooinc/spring-boot-3-scheduled-jobs 🔗Grab My Other Products Available: - Packaging a JavaScript Frontend in Java Spring Boot: https://t.ly/gaKyT - Build Your First Web Service with Java Spring Boot: https://t.ly/iv_84 👋🏻Connect with me: Twitter: https://www.twitter.com/eyuzwa 🔗References: - Docker Desktop Client: https://www.docker.com/ - Cron Reference: https://crontab.cronhub.io/ ===---=== Chapters ===---=== 00:00 - Introduction 00:13 - What are Scheduled Jobs? 01:14 - Generate Project 02:05 - Setting up Project Basics 06:01 - Sketching out the ProductInventoryJob 07:45 - a FixedDelay Scheduled Job 09:40 - @EnableScheduling 10:55 - a FixedRate Scheduled Job 12:42 - @EnableAsync 13:18 - Checking the Database 14:31 - a Cron Scheduled Job #springboot #docker #scheduledjobs
