Overview

For ease of maintenance and monitoring, it is recommended to use a process management tool to ensure the component daemons are running correctly. Using a process manager can simplify restarts, reboots, status-checks, logging, and configurations.

The process management tools that are frequently used are Systemd, init-script, etc. In general, it is recommended to use the tool that the OS provides to handle these tasks.

To simplify the installation, Supervisor can also be used, which provides application-level process management that is independent of the host setup.

The tools available for process management require sudo access which might not be an option in some situations. Corridor has its own process manager for each of the components, which uses daemonisation to handle long-running, background processes.
