I have several WCF services and I want to execute methods in them at specific intervals.
For example, call Service1.DoSomeWork every 5 minutes and Service2.DoSomeWork every 10 minutes. I also want Windows client applications to be able to call the DoSomeWork methods at any time.
What is the best way to implement this?
I have complete control over the server so using Scheduled Tasks is possible but I wonder if using a Workflow in AppFabric is better or using a timer in the service itself?
Check out this post. I answered a question a while ago where the developer want to “Do something” at an interval in a windows service. I gave a pretty detailed code sample for scheduling activity within a Windows Service as recommended by other posted earlier in this thread.
