Each activity can have its own schedule: for example, one activity could run every 10 seconds, while another runs every 5 minutes. To ensure that only one instance of the Metronome can run at any given time in any role instance in your Windows Azure environment, it can uses a lease on a Windows Azure blob (see IExecutionLease).
