Want a service where I can give it a piece of code (including a pointer to git or mercurial repo) and have it run that code on a regular basis.

Wishlist of features:

  • Language: python, js (node.js)
  • Notification of run and results
  • Store results locally and remotely (files and databases)
  • Logging support (possibly using XUnit)
  • Workflow support (do this after that has run successfully)
  • Spin up workers on demand

This is result of long-running discussions of Friedrich Lindenberg and Rufus Pollock and is almost certainly not original. (See also this post: http://notebook.okfn.org/2011/04/18/25k-spending-etl-process/)

It seems to me that ScraperWiki now satisfies a lot of these demands.
