Scheduled Deployments - Techulus Cloud

You can configure a service to redeploy automatically on a schedule. This is useful for workloads that need periodic restarts or for pulling the latest version of an image tag.

Configuration

Set a deployment schedule using a cron expression in the service settings. Examples:

Schedule	Cron Expression
Every hour	`0 * * * *`
Daily at midnight UTC	`0 0 * * *`
Every 6 hours	`0 /6 * *`
Weekdays at 9 AM UTC	`0 9 * * 1-5`

The platform tracks the last scheduled deployment time to prevent duplicate runs.

How It Works

A background job checks for services with deployment schedules and triggers a new rollout when the schedule is due. The rollout follows the same process as a manual deployment — pulling the image, starting new containers, running health checks, and stopping old containers.
