Enterprise orchestration · v0.0.1 in production

Orchestrate enterprise operations at scale

TaskSense is an event-driven scheduling, automation, and execution platform built for distributed systems, manufacturing, infrastructure operations, and mission-critical enterprise workflows. One platform — schedule, run, monitor, audit.

Production-grade. Multi-tenant. Sub-millisecond pickup latency. Horizontally scalable runner fleet. Audit-trailed by default.

One platform, seven layers of orchestration

Schedule, distribute, coordinate, integrate, observe, predict, and secure — every capability your operations team needs, designed to compose rather than collide.

Advanced scheduling engine

Express any pattern from one-time fires to deeply recurring rules — no Cron PhD required.

  • Once / hourly / daily / weekly / monthly / yearly
  • Cron with Quartz extensions (L, W, #, MONL)
  • Time-range execution windows + business-day rules
  • Live next-execution forecasting + simulation
  • Per-schedule timezone (IANA) — DST-safe

Distributed task execution

A self-registering runner fleet that scales horizontally and survives pod churn.

  • Cluster-aware execution + load distribution
  • Snapshot-based suspend / resume / restart
  • Configurable retry + backoff policies
  • Event-driven dispatch (Kafka / Solace)
  • Per-runner concurrency caps
🔒

Resource management

Coordinate access to physical equipment, devices, and shared resources across the fleet.

  • Resource reservation + locking
  • Exclusive vs shared allocation modes
  • Real-time resource status + queue depth
  • Resource-aware scheduling decisions
  • Reservation history + audit
🔌

Connectors & integrations

First-class connectors for the protocols your platform teams already speak.

  • SSH · TCP · UDP · HTTP(S) · REST · SOAP · FTP
  • Kafka · Solace · MQTT message buses
  • JDBC · monitoring system integrations
  • Specialised protocols available via the runner SPI
  • Bring-your-own connector — fat-jar runner pattern
📊

Monitoring & observability

Real-time signal from the platform itself — not bolted on, baked in.

  • Live execution dashboards + Gantt previews
  • Event streams + per-execution log capture
  • Performance metrics (duration, throughput)
  • Distributed tracing via correlation IDs
  • SLA monitoring with alerting hooks
🧠

AI & predictive automation

Where the platform is heading — the data foundation is already in place.

  • Predictive maintenance windows
  • Anomaly detection on execution streams
  • Capacity & throughput forecasting
  • Intelligent scheduling suggestions
  • Failure-pattern correlation
🛡

Security & audit

Enterprise authentication, authorization, and trail — required by default, not an upgrade.

  • OAuth2 / JWT issuance with rotating RSA keys
  • Per-action authority model (no coarse roles)
  • Full audit framework with entity history
  • Token blacklist propagation across services
  • Multi-tenant isolation at every layer

Built like infrastructure, not an app

Microservices architecture, event-driven communication, dynamic registration, horizontal scale-out — TaskSense behaves like the systems it orchestrates.

Self-registering tasks. Schema-driven UI. Event-driven everything.

TaskSense is deliberately domain-agnostic. Every task self-registers with a JSON schema describing what it needs to run; the scheduler UI renders pickers directly from those schemas; runners pick up work over Kafka or Solace; results stream back through correlation-tagged events.

The control plane is built from independently scalable microservices (scheduler, runner-registry, audit, mail, userdata, authentication, config) communicating over Kafka with an explicit topic contract per concern. State persists to MySQL; logs stream to MinIO. Every service emits monitoring + audit events without opt-in.

CONTROL Scheduler · Auth · Audit · Events · UserData — Spring Boot microservices, JOINED-inheritance JPA model, Quartz cron extensions.
RUNNERS Self-registering fat-jar processes publishing capability schemas at boot; horizontally scaled per task family.
MESSAGING Kafka · Solace · MQTT for execution dispatch, snapshot streams, and result events.
PERSIST MySQL for definitions / events / executions; MinIO for per-execution log blobs.
DEPLOY Docker · Kubernetes-ready. Health-probed actuators, JSON rolling logs, OAuth2 introspection across services.
UI Angular 19 + Material — schema-driven schedule forms, live Gantt previews, audit trail viewer, simulation harness.

From trigger to audit in seven steps

What happens when a schedule fires, traced end-to-end. Every step is observable, recoverable, and recorded.

1

Event received

Cron tick, external trigger, or workflow chain step. Topic-routed via Kafka.

2

Task evaluated

Scheduler validates the task definition + payload against the registered schema.

3

Resources allocated

Required equipment / locks / shared resources reserved before dispatch.

4

Runner dispatch

Distributed across the runner fleet; correlation ID + execution ID stamped.

5

Execution & logs

Live log capture into MinIO; metrics streamed; UI gets server-sent events.

6

Result & events

Completion / failure / suspend events fan out to subscribers + workflow chains.

7

Audit recorded

Immutable audit record with before/after entity state and executing user.

Built for mission-critical work

Designed against the patterns manufacturing, infrastructure, and large enterprise teams hit in production every day. Plus open to specialised domains where the same schedule + runner + audit shape applies.

🗓

Enterprise scheduling

Recurring back-office jobs — reports, reconciliations, syncs — with full timezone, weekday, and time-window control.

🏭

Manufacturing orchestration

Equipment reservation, recipe execution, batch coordination across shop-floor systems with shared-resource locking.

🔧

Infrastructure operations

Patch windows, certificate rotation, backup orchestration across environments — with continuation modes for long-running work.

🩺

Monitoring & remediation

Probe-then-act runbooks, self-healing automations triggered by alerts, with audit-trailed runbook history.

🤖

AI-driven operations

Run inference jobs, retraining pipelines, model evaluation on a schedule with resource-aware GPU coordination.

📡

Network operations (potential use case)

The runner-SPI + protocol-connector model also fits network-element provisioning, config audits, and polling workflows for teams with that domain need.

Designed for scale

Horizontal at every layer. Multi-node from day one. Tested under load.

10K+
Concurrent schedules
Per scheduler instance, scaling linearly with replicas.
<1ms
Pickup latency
Event-bus dispatch, no polling, no scheduler-to-runner round trip.
Runner fleet
Self-registering. Scale runner pods independently per task family.
100%
Audit coverage
Every mutation recorded by default — no opt-in, no missing events.

Security as a first-class layer

Authentication, authorization, audit, and isolation are required by default — not premium add-ons.

JWT + OAuth2

RSA-key-rotated tokens, server-side blacklist propagation, OAuth2 client-credentials for service-to-service.

Per-action authorities

Granular SCHEDULE_CREATE / RUNNER_VIEW / AUDIT_EXPORT codes — never coarse "admin" roles.

Full audit trail

Every state-mutating action recorded with before/after JSON snapshot, executing user, and request context.

Multi-tenant isolation

Client-scoped data at every layer — schedules, audit, user data — isolated by tenant from query plan to UI.

Standing on a battle-tested stack

No exotic frameworks. JVM-grade tooling that runs in every enterprise data centre.

Gantt preview

Next-N firings rendered with simulated duration, jitter, drift, failure rate.

🖥
