Answer 1

There is a start stop scheduler in the marketplace within the Jelastic dashboard. Check "Env Start/Stop Scheduler" in Marketplace > Add-Ons.

If you're interested in the code, or can't find that add-on at your Jelastic provider, you can find it at https://github.com/jelastic-jps/start-stop-scheduler

Note that this is not quite the same as sleep (it will not wake up automatically when there's a http request) - it will be completely offline during the hours that you specify.
