Planning with gearman vs cron?

Question

I noticed that many people are discussing Gearman and planning features that allow them to distribute work to other servers. However, I have not yet seen a comparison with my native crowns.

What is the difference between cron and Gearman?

If you are doing clean planning, using Gearman is not necessary.

The main differences between Gearman and cron are as follows:

• Cron tasks start only in time, while Gearman functions are launched by calls to other applications.
• Gearman , , cron . cron .
