chronos online with Winfy

We have hosted the application chronos in order to run this application in our online workstations with Wine or directly.

Quick description about chronos:

Chronos is a replacement for cron. It is a distributed and fault-tolerant scheduler that runs on top of Apache Mesos that can be used for job orchestration. It supports custom Mesos executors as well as the default command executor. Thus by default, Chronos executes sh (on most systems bash) scripts. Chronos can be used to interact with systems such as Hadoop (incl. EMR), even if the Mesos slaves on which execution happens do not have Hadoop installed. Chronos is also natively able to schedule jobs that run inside Docker containers. Chronos has a number of advantages over regular cron. It allows you to schedule your jobs using ISO8601 repeating interval notation, which enables more flexibility in job scheduling. Chronos also supports the definition of jobs triggered by the completion of other jobs. It supports arbitrarily long dependency chains. The easiest way to use Chronos is to use DC/OS and install chronos via the universe.

Features:

• ISO8601 Repeating Interval Notation
• Job Stats (e.g. 50th, 75th, 95th and 99th percentile timing, failure/success)
• Job History (e.g. job duration, start time, end time, failure/success)
• Fault Tolerance (leader/follower)
• Configurable Retries
• Multiple Workers (i.e. Mesos agents)
• Native Docker support

Programming Language: Scala.
