About the Systemd
January 18, 2025 · 2 min read · Page View:
It has been a long time that the linux use init
to manage the startup process, such as sudo /etc/init.d/apache2 start
or service apache2 start
, but the init
is serial. To address this issue, the systemd
was born. The d is the abbreviation of daemon
, which means the systemd
is a daemon manager. The systemd substitutes the initd and becomes the default main process PID 1
.
