I'm used to Cronjobs in PHP... Set up a cronjob that goes to a url every x minutes.
However, in ASP .Net C# and I guess also down to Microsoft Azure, I cannot find a simple way of calling a URL on a scheduled timer?
What's the way you go about this?
I would like something like this:
every 5 minutes, please invoke this url: www.example.com

See the Azure Scheduler Service.

In particular, I believe this tutorial is exactly what you want.
