Why Systemd is the Standard for Linux Daemons

Systemd is the default init system and service manager across all modern Linux distributions (Ubuntu, Debian, AlmaLinux, RHEL, Fedora). Unlike userspace process managers (like PM2 or screen/tmux), systemd integrates directly with Linux cgroups and kernel signal handlers.

Cgroups Resource Isolation

By setting MemoryMax and CPUQuota, systemd stops memory leaks from consuming the entire VPS memory pool and triggering host kernel panics.

Automated Journald Log Rotation

Systemd captures all standard output directly into binary journal logs with automatic size capping and log rotation, preventing runaway log files from filling up disk space.
