Cron Jobs Overview

Cron jobs can be triggered by Serverless or Edge functions, meaning the same usage and pricing limits apply to both.

Number of cron jobs per account

  • Hobby plan: 2 cron jobs
  • Pro plan: 40 cron jobs
  • Enterprise plan: 100 cron jobs

Each project has a hard limit of 20 cron jobs per project.

Hobby Scheduling Limits

On the Hobby plan, Esadax cannot guarantee timely cron job invocations. For example:

  • A cron job configured as 0 1 * * * (every day at 1 am) will trigger anywhere between 1:00 am and 1:59 am.
  • More specific execution times may require upgrading to the Pro plan.

Pro and Enterprise Plans

  • Pro plan: Unlimited cron invocations
  • Enterprise plan: Unlimited cron invocations

Pricing Details

Cron jobs are included in all plans. However, using a function to invoke a cron job means that usage and pricing limits for these functions apply to all cron job executions.
