Option 1 : Using Timer Class // The callback no inside the method used above. // This will run every 24 hours. System.Threading.Timer timer = new System.Threading.Timer(new TimerCallback(TimerElapsed) null new Timespan(0) new Timespan(24 0 0)); private void TimerElapsed(object o) { // Do stuff. } Here it executes for 24 hour interval you can change as per your requirement. You need to put above code inside your controller. Option 2: Using Javascript setInterval http://www.w3schools.com/js/tryit.asp?filename=tryjs_setinterval1 Option 3: Using SingnalR http://dontcodetired.com/blog/post/Using-Server-Side-Timers-and-SignalR-in-ASPNET-MVC-Applications.aspx
