Monitoring and auto-starting Node.js services on Windows Server

When relying on various Node.js services (e.g. Butler SOS, Butler, App Duplicator etc), you quickly run into the challenge to ensure all services are always up and running. A failing service might be fine, as long as it is quickly restarted in a predictable way. A concrete example
