JobRunr overview

What is JobRunr?

🚀 JobRunr - Effortless Background Job Processing for Java

JobRunr is a powerful open-source Java library for background job processing, task scheduling, and distributed job execution. Designed for simplicity and speed, it lets you schedule and run background tasks using pure Java 8+ lambdas – no complex configuration required.

Whether you need fire-and-forget, scheduled, or recurring jobs, JobRunr analyzes your code, stores job metadata in your database, and ensures the job runs on any available server. It’s built for horizontal scalability, making it ideal for cloud and Kubernetes (K8s) environments.

If a job fails, automatic retries kick in. Developers can monitor, requeue, or delete jobs directly from the intuitive web-based dashboard.

🔧 Easy Integration for Modern Java Stacks

JobRunr integrates smoothly with any Java application and works out of the box with Spring Boot, Quarkus, and Micronaut. Just add the dependency and start scheduling background jobs in minutes.
