Koha relies on lots of supplementary programs, Apache, Mysql, Perl ..
to name but a few. cron is not something new, it has been in linux and
unix and bsd and others for decades.

cron is used to schedule tasks to be run at a set time, in this
instance to run rebuild_zebra.pl, which updates zebra's indexes.
(Coincidentally zebra is another program Koha relies on.) cron is also
used to schedule things like the fines and overdue scripts.

I seriously suggest learning about cron if you wish to run a linux
server, it is used extensively by lots of programs that require tasks
to be run at certain times, like rotating logfiles, syncing clocks,
etc.
