A Concierge service is a module that can only be loaded or unloaded. It does not get called when messages are sent (although it is possible to listen for these using events). A service MUST cleanup after itself, in order to prevent memory leaks.
These functions must be implemented within a service (or optionally within a module) as a part of the exports object.
