Supervisor

Client/server process control system, written in Python, that starts, stops and monitors programs on UNIX-like operating systems.

Supervisor is a client/server system that monitors and controls processes on UNIX-like operating systems. Its server, supervisord, runs in the background unless its configuration sets it to stay in the foreground. The software is installed with pip, and the installation guide also describes a distribution package route.

Worth knowing

Supervisor runs on UNIX-like systems and does not run under Windows, according to its introduction.
