Does Sharepoint 2013 provide a native solution for workflow scheduling?

I know HarePoint Workflow Scheduler as alternative solution, but I would like to know if the new Sharepoint 2013 capabilities include this feature.

As far as I know SharePoint 2013 doesn't have a native solution for workflow scheduling. From the top of my head however I can suggest the following approaches:

  1. Create a SharePoint Timer Job which will trigger your workflow based on the schedule you provided.
  2. Create a console application using the workflow services to trigger the workflow manually. Once this is done, setup a scheduled task based on the schedule you wanted it to run.
  3. A blog post shown here demonstrates how to have a workflow run once a day.
