Running long programs/server restart

I want to run a program that needs to a while between iterations and I cant use the scheduling since it needs to be a continuous run.

My question is: how often do the servers need to restart for maintenance or any other reason?

My program should not crash as I have made sure of that and it is not very big. But ive noticed it just stops randomly sometimes and the output file i have is blank. I want to make sure I can rely on this or I will have to make changes/find another way to do what i need to do

I saw some topic from about 2012 saying that this is an issue that is trying to be fixed. I am wondering if it has been fixed now that we are 6 years down the road. If it has, there might be something im missing

thanks
