Process Supervision
Auto-restart, health checks
Easy
Overview
Automatic process management that restarts crashed processes, manages resources, and performs health checks.
Why It Matters
Services restart automatically on failure. Defined lifecycle management.
The Risk
Without supervision, crashed services stay down until someone notices. Memory leaks cause gradual degradation. Resource exhaustion brings down unrelated services.
Implementation Components
A complete implementation of this capability includes:
- Process manager (systemd, Docker, supervisord)
- Automatic restart on failure with backoff
- Health check definitions
- Resource limits (memory, CPU)
- Graceful shutdown handling
- Logging of restarts and failures
Implementation Pattern
- 1Use process supervisor
- 2Configure restart policies
- 3Set resource limits
- 4Implement health checks
