Cron is the term you are looking for and there are many options. As another commenter said, there are Linux system level solutions. There are also Cron concepts in kubernetes, aws lambda, zapier. If they don't have a dashboard, I'm sure there is another SaaS that does and plenty of open source solutions for that as well

I do use system level cron. The problem was in monitoring them. Maybe like the other commentor said, one could parse syslog to monitor.

Also curious what the best way to visualize cron status is, for example using timeseries data from kube or a syslog.

ah, we don't care when it runs as much as when it doesn't run, so we slack on failure
