Hi there,
I have couple announcements.
First: Do you need Java scheduling? How about try out an easy web based UI with Quartz!
Both myschedule-2.1.2 (for Quartz-2.1.0) and myschedule-1.5.2(for Quartz-1.8.5) releases are available for download here: http://code.google.com/p/myschedule/downloads/list
I have fixed few bugs and improved the UI slightly. Both of these releases should now deployable on Tomcat6, Tomcat7, and JBossAS servers!
Second: Quartz 2.1.0 has been released!
I have become a Quartz committer! In this release, I have helped fixed some bugs, and added a new built-in trigger type: DailyTimeIntervalTrigger. This new trigger will allow you to specify a interval time in either seconds, minutes, or hours interval on each day (Like fire every 72 mins starting at 7am everyday). And the daily start time will be reset each day regardless what time it ended in that day! You may even limit daily ending time too. And you may limit the days to run on certain weekdays only as well. You may see many examples on how this trigger is used here: http://svn.terracotta.org/fisheye/browse/Quartz/trunk/quartz/src/te...
Another feature worthy of note in this release is the "batch" mode is finally working! You may turn this on by using "org.quartz.scheduler.batchTriggerAcquisitionMaxCount" and "org.quartz.scheduler.batchTriggerAcquisitionFireAheadTimeWindow" in your quartz.properties file. See config doc here: http://quartz-scheduler.org/documentation/quartz-2.1.x/configuratio...
Enjoy!

ReadyOn has detailed a four-layer tenant isolation architecture for its Harmony platform on Amazon EKS. The design combines Kubernetes namespaces, dedicated Karpenter node pools, VPC security groups, and per-tenant Aurora databases, with controls evaluated against a 10-stage multi-tenant threat model focused on cross-tenant access and lateral movement.

Agentic LLM systems have moved from linear prompt chains to graph-based workflows and, more recently, code-executing harnesses. Chains are simple but fragile, graphs add branching, retries, and validation, and code harnesses verify outputs through execution. The article advises validating model outputs and choosing the least complex design that meets reliability, speed, and cost needs.
