Infrastructure to run periodic tasks (re3data)

[sfisher]

I think Brian is thinking about this. It's not clear where periodic tasks such as populating re3data will run (that formerly ran under cron).

I think CDLUC3/dmsp_aws_prototype#86 is a similar, perhaps duplicate ticket?

Is it appropriate for a Lambda (short run time to populate?). Or does it belong under AWS batch or some other way for periodic runs. I'm guessing DMP will come up with a common way to do these types of tasks that formerly used to run as cron job or services in the old system.
