TickerQ is a fast, reflection-free background job scheduler for .NET that uses C# source generators to register job handlers at compile time, with cron and one-off (TimeTicker) scheduling. It offers EF Core or Redis persistence, multi-node coordination, retry policies, and a built-in real-time SignalR dashboard.
Use cases
- schedule recurring cron jobs in a .NET application
- run delayed one-off background tasks in ASP.NET Core
- monitor and manage background jobs from a web dashboard
- run a job scheduler across multiple app instances with Redis coordination
- persist scheduled jobs to SQL Server, PostgreSQL, SQLite, or MySQL
- replace Hangfire with an AOT-compatible, zero-reflection scheduler
- add retries and backoff to background task execution
- trace job executions with OpenTelemetry
When to choose
- you're building on .NET 8/9/10 and need background jobs with minimal setup
- you need Native AOT / trimming compatibility that reflection-based schedulers like Hangfire lack
- you want built-in persistence in your own database plus a free real-time dashboard
- you need multi-node distributed scheduling with dead-node recovery
When to avoid
- you're not on the .NET ecosystem
- you need a language-agnostic or standalone scheduler service outside your app process
- you require a long-proven scheduler with a large enterprise track record
- you need complex workflow orchestration beyond simple job chaining
