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](/technology/installation/components/process-management/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, [Corridor-Daemons](/technology/installation/components/process-management/daemon/), which uses daemonisation to handle long-running,
background processes.
