High Availability & Fault Tolerance
Master-worker HA, automatic failover, and no single point of failure
Enterprise Data Orchestration
Ship Reliable Data Workflows Faster
Design, schedule, and operate complex pipelines with low-code control, release governance, and production-grade reliability.
Advanced Scheduling
Cron, event-driven, dependency-based, and batch scheduling
Monitoring & Alerting
Real-time monitoring, customizable alerts, and SLA tracking
Security & Compliance
RBAC, LDAP/SSO integration, audit logs, and encryption
Scalability
Horizontal scaling for thousands of concurrent workflows
Product experience
Design and launch production workflows visually
Model complex dependencies, configure task logic quickly, and move from draft to scheduled execution without extra orchestration tooling.
Job ecosystem
30+ built-in task types for faster delivery
Cover ingestion, compute, SQL, notifications, and ML steps without stitching together separate scheduling tools.
Capabilities
Control releases, execution, and reliability from one platform
Give data teams one orchestration layer for workflow authoring, deployment governance, fault tolerance, and runtime operations.
Full-Ecosystem Scheduling
Run diverse data tasks in one scheduler with broad built-in components and version-aware execution control.
Design Workflows Your Way
Build DAGs with low-code tooling, code, or spreadsheet imports so teams can launch workflows faster.
Release with Confidence
Promote workflows across environments with CI/CD-friendly deployment, packaging, and release governance.
Batch and Streaming Ready
Operate batch and streaming workloads across public, private, and hybrid cloud environments.
Execution Controls That Protect SLAs
Reduce failed runs with fault tolerance, reruns, and runtime controls built for production operations.
Flexible Business Time Rules
Handle calendars, cut-off times, and cross-team timing logic without manual coordination.
Open source foundation
Enterprise orchestration built on Apache DolphinScheduler
Start from the Apache core, then add stronger security, greater stability, and enterprise-grade workflow controls.
Apache DolphinScheduler
DolphinScheduler is an Apache Software Foundation project. It provides a distributed and extensible open-source workflow orchestration platform with powerful DAG visual interfaces.
WhaleScheduler builds on that foundation and adds enterprise-grade capabilities, stronger security, and greater operational stability.
Why WhaleScheduler
See the gap between open source and enterprise-ready orchestration
Compare community-only orchestration with the control, security, and operational support enterprise teams need.
