I've setup a node.js server with cron jobs via node-cron, which is js-land cron implementation. I've noticed that sometimes the jobs are not launching, aparently without errors and following an unknown pattern.
Well, since this server is a free one, I was thinking that maybe it goes to sleep when there is no activity, so that the jobs are not launching. I've looked the docs and I haven't seen any clear indication on this.
I've already seen the Cron addon, but I'm not interested on it. I'll like to make it work within a js process.
Thanks!
cloudControl uses Container idling (https://www.cloudcontrol.com/dev-center/Platform%20Documentation#deploying-new-versions) for free deployments.
If a free deployment (1 container with 128MB) does not get any requests within a timeframe of one hour the container is idled ("server goes to sleep").
