Dialect versions
Unix / Linux
0 */19 * * *Standard Unix/Linux cron expression when this schedule is expressible with five fields.
AWS EventBridge
rate(19 hours)AWS EventBridge cron schedules are evaluated in UTC. Use rate(...) for simple fixed intervals when possible.
Quartz
0 0 */19 * * ?Quartz includes a leading seconds field and supports additional day operators.
Kubernetes
0 */19 * * *Kubernetes CronJobs use standard five-field cron syntax. Non-standard operators require job-level logic.
Variants

Kubernetes notes
- Kubernetes CronJobs can use this schedule directly.
- "If the job may run longer than the interval
- use concurrencyPolicy: Forbid or make the job idempotent."
Common mistakes
- "Writing \"*/19 * * * *\" changes the minute field and means every 19 minutes
- not every 19 hours."
- Assuming rate-based AWS schedules align to the same wall-clock hours as cron.
FAQ
What is the cron expression for every 19 hours?
Use `0 */19 * * *` for standard cron when the scheduler supports this syntax.
Can I use this expression in Kubernetes?
Yes, if it is standard five-field cron. AWS and Quartz-only operators need a Kubernetes-safe alternative or application-level date logic.
