  • Automatic update support with a framework supporting:
    • validation,
    • signing,

  • Run startup tasks (again just command-line programs)
  • Run tasks on a cron schedule
  • Advanced task/service control:
    • Graceful shutdown
    • Start delay
    • Option to randomize task time(s) (e.g. ensure update checks don't all arrive at the same time of day)
  • Lots of other stuff:
    • Logging and log rotation
    • Pid file
    • Simple text based configuration in JSON format
