Summary

Temporal Schedules` is a replacement for traditional `Cron jobs` that provides more durable task scheduling, insight into progress, and observability of schedules and workflow runs. It offers enhanced control and observability over workflows, flexible and extensible scheduling, and eliminates the need for external dependencies. The new feature streamlines time-based workflow management, simplifies the process, and reduces complexity. It is designed to be more powerful than traditional `Cron` jobs and provides a clear view of schedules and runs with operations such as start, backfill, pause, and update workflows seamlessly. The feature is available in open-source and has been added to the CLI, Web UI, Go SDK, TypeScript SDK, Java SDK, .NET SDK, and Python SDK.
