What is TickerQ Hub?
TickerQ Hub is a control plane for distributed schedulers. It gives you centralized visibility and management over all your TickerQ scheduler nodes, functions, and configurations — without running any of your jobs itself.
How does TickerQ Hub work?
Your TickerQ schedulers connect to Hub via the TickerQ SDK. The SDK reports node health, function registrations, and execution results to Hub. Hub aggregates this data into a real-time dashboard where you can monitor, configure, and manage everything from one place.
What happens if TickerQ Hub goes down?
Your jobs keep running. TickerQ Hub is a control plane, not an executor. Your schedulers operate independently in your infrastructure. If Hub becomes unreachable, the SDK caches configurations locally and continues operating normally. You only lose visibility temporarily — never execution.
Does TickerQ Hub execute my jobs?
No. Hub never executes your jobs. Your schedulers run in your own infrastructure, on your own servers. Hub only provides the visibility, configuration management, and team collaboration layer on top.
Is my data safe with TickerQ Hub?
Yes. Job payloads never leave your network. Hub only receives metadata — node health, function names, execution status, and timing information. Your actual job data stays on your servers.
What programming languages does TickerQ support?
TickerQ is built for .NET. The TickerQ SDK integrates with your .NET applications as a NuGet package. If you're running .NET services with background jobs, TickerQ is designed specifically for your stack.

What is the difference between TickerQ and TickerQ Hub?
TickerQ is the open-source .NET scheduler framework that runs your background jobs. TickerQ Hub is the managed control plane that gives you visibility and management capabilities over your TickerQ schedulers. You can use TickerQ without Hub, but Hub makes operating at scale much easier.
