I am looking for an enterprise tasks scheduler for python, like quartz is for Java. Requirements:
Any recommendations? Is there something python specific, or is it possible (or even good) to interface to Quartz from python.
Schedule is in-process scheduler for periodic jobs that use the builder pattern for configuration. Schedule lets you run Python functions (or any other callable) periodically at pre-determined intervals using a simple, human-friendly syntax.
Quartz is a job scheduling library that can be integrated into a wide variety of Java applications. Quartz is generally used for enterprise class applications to support process workflow, system management (maintenance) actions and to provide timely services within the applications.
Based on the docs, Spring provides three way of scheduling: @Scheduled. Via Quartz. Via JDK Timer.
To schedule a Python script with Task scheduler, create an action and add the path to your Python executable file, add the path to the script in the “Start in” box and add the name of the Python file ase an argument. Then, create a trigger to schedule the execution of your script.
Is APScheduler what you're looking for?
You can use Celery
Celery is an asynchronous task queue/job queue based on distributed message passing. It is focused on real-time operation, but supports scheduling as well.
Install Celery using pip install celery
Another option is using RQ.
RQ (Redis Queue) is a simple Python library for queueing jobs and processing them in the background with workers. It is backed by Redis and it is designed to have a low barrier to entry. It should be integrated in your web stack easily.
Install using pip install rq

We're using Sun Grid Engine, which is accessible through DRMAA, which happens to have Python bindings.
