This codelab will guide you through creating cron jobs in a Firefly application using OpenWhisk Alarms Package.
Project Firefly simplifies the process of building Cloud Native Applications that leverage Adobe I/O Runtime, which is based on OpenWhisk and uses its architecture to provide function-as-a-service (FaaS).
For headless applications, you may need to set up recurring jobs or tasks, such as invoking a data importing action every hour. To achieve that, you could leverage OpenWhisk Alarms Package to fire a trigger at a specified frequency.
