repetitive weekly task

I need to build a repetitive job that runs weekly. I'd usually write a spring controller etc and run that via crontab.

My question is whether I should take this approach or use spring batch - or perhaps someone can recommend a better solution?

I need to do it this week tho and it has to be live soon :(

Focusing only on the technical side of the solution, it CAN be accomplished with Spring Batch. It can be configured to use a configurable cron inside it, delegating to Quartz.

Now, it is up to you to analyze if you can meet the deadlines or not.

Good Luck
