Chronos is a replacement for cron.

A fault tolerant job scheduler for Mesos which handles dependencies and ISO8601 based schedules

Marathon is a framework for Mesos that is designed to launch long-running applications, and, in Mesosphere, serves as a replacement for a traditional system

In Mesosphere, Chronos compliments Marathon as it provides another way to run applications, according to a schedule or other conditions, such as the completion of another job. It is also capable of scheduling jobs on multiple Mesos slave nodes, and provides statistics about job failures and successes. Source
