title: What is the equivalent of ASP:Timer control in ASP.NET MVC?
body: <p>Recently i am working on migrating the ASP.NET Web application to MVC.</p>
  
  <p>I am wondering if there is any equivalent of ASP:Timer control in ASP.NET MVC Framework. So that this <strong>Timer control</strong> can automatically check for a particular value from the Database once in every couple of Seconds(that we specify).</p>
  
  <p>If there is no <strong>equivalent of Timer control in MVC</strong>, Are there any other ways to implement this. </p>
  
  <p>Appreciate your responses.</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
