# Systemd Services
Create, manage, and monitor systemd services and timers. Covers unit file authoring, dependency management, socket activation, resource limits, journalctl log analysis, and production hardening.
## When to Use
- Deploying an application as a managed background service
- Replacing cron jobs with systemd timers for better logging and dependency control
- Setting up socket activation for on-demand service startup
- Configuring resource limits (CPU, memory, I/O) for services
- Debugging service startup failures and runtime crashes
- Managing service dependencies and ordering
