How does it work?
Steward has a easy to use RESTful API that easily integrates with just about any scripting or development language, as a result we're able to support any operating system. Getting started is simple, you’ll just need to insert a simple one line cURL request into your periodic task, for Ruby developers you can use our official Ruby gem.
Even if you’re not tracking periodic jobs with Steward, you can use our API to monitor and graph the run times for any piece of code, and alert you when it’s running less than optimal.
Integration with 
Easily integrate your existing PagerDuty services with periodic jobs and tasks on Steward. Provide a service API key and we will take care of the rest. You can even customize your alert settings.
