Manage independent applications and guard the process running, similar with systemd but more flexible (long/short running, periodic long running, cron schedule, customized day time and error handling control) and comprehensive monitoring (number of starts, return code, error message, health-check) for both native and docker application. 2. Use SDK/CLI run application on a remote host with sync/async mode and fetch result to client. 3. Full control of application lifecycle (cgroup for resource limitation, specific OS user for execution user). 4. Interactive application start support specify input data by pipe and environment variables. 5. All functionality provides by CLI, REST, SDK and WebGUI interface. |
