DailyJS: A JavaScript Blog: "Why bother making a Node process behave like a daemon? There are several reasons, but generally because it’s a service that should be running at all times, in the background, and will automatically start after a reboot.
There are different ways to do this depending on the operating system. Most Linux distributions use System V compatible init scripts with runlevels. An alternative is upstart which is installed by default on Ubuntu systems."
