How to run Prefect Server as a background process?

Hello!

I have a remote linux server running a prefect server.
When I start the server, using “prefect server start”, the dashboard works.
However, when I exit the server, the dashboard stops working.
How can I run “prefect server start” in the background?

Thanks a lot!

Welcome to Discourse, @thlanza! :wave:

Perhaps you can leverage Supervisor? There are many daemon services allowing you to run background processes

You may also look at this Helm chart:

Apart from that, if you are just getting started with Prefect, perhaps it makes sense to start with Prefect 2.0?
