I have certain jobs to be executed automatically at a given interval of
time in the postgre SQL database. Is their any utility/feature available
in Postgre to do so.
No, use the scheduler from the OS, CRON for example (UNIX).
There is a database level schedular called (iirc) pgAgent, which comes bundled
with pgAdmin. I think it's so well hidden because it comes as a part of a
tool which is only used by a small subset of the community. I had hopes that
it might follow autovacuums path and get moved into a contrib module and
possibly integrated into the backend some day, but I haven't seen much push
in that direction.
What is everyone using instead of pgAdmin?
In production I only use ssh and psql, but in development I do use pgAdmin.
