Hi I have developed a scheduler sometime back for an ASP.Net site using cache expiration callbacks. I have the budget now to move the site to a dedicated server so I have written the scheduler as a windows service using a timer object – its working well in test envirinment.
I want to know if the timer approach is good enough for this. In other words – what are the best design strategies for creating a ROBUST C# scheduler engine which can load/dispatch the configured/stored tasks every ‘n’ minutes.

    I would use Quartz.NET. It’s well tested, open source and I’ve used it several times with no problems.

    EDIT: Actually, having just spoken to a colleague about scheduling, there is something to be said for using windows scheduled tasks when a lightweight solution will suffice (as another poster pointed out).

    Quartz.NET is a full-featured, open
    source job scheduling system that can
    be used from smallest apps to large
    scale enterprise systems.
