Keep OrientDB server running on AWS EC2

Question

I recently downloaded and managed to start an OrientDB server/database on an AWS EC2 Linux 14.04 (I think the name is) server for an application I want to set up. I started OrientDB "as usual" by running ./server.sh in the terminal via SSH link to the EC2 server. All works fine and I can query the database while at the computer. But as soon as I leave my computer and the SSH link is broken (for example when closing the computer), so is the database, ie it stops.

Is there a way to go around this or do I have to set up the database in some other way?

Answer 1

OrientDB is provided as AWS AMI. Take a look to

您可以尝试在退出0之前将server.sh的完整路径放入/etc/rc.local并重新启动实例

Answer 3

Before running the server, run the command:

screen

This will create a persistent environment which will allow your process to keep running after you disconnect.

When you reconnect, you can use this command to reconnect to that environment:

screen -r
