Looking for a meteor package or nodejs npm module for running scheduled back-end services to update MongoDB colletions

The idea is to run automated scheduled backend services, rather Meteor.methods on server which calls some 3rd party REST services and updates the Meteor Mongo collections with the data received in the response from the invoked REST service. Any help or pointers would be appreicated

This is what I use.

It works flawlessly across multiple instances of you app too.
