Good article! I actually like systemd, but nowadays I generally run stuff as containers, so there is less and less opportunity to use it.

Here is my current setup for Airflow:

- 1 container for the webserver

- 1 container for the scheduler

- 1 managed database (I use Postgres, it's a fairly small instance.)

- 1 S3 bucket to deploy DAGs. I mount it on my containers using s3fs-fuse.

- You can monitor the scheduler using a PID file, whereas the webserver can be monitored probing your admin URL.

- Most configuration can be done using environment variables, which is perfect for containers.

- I also configure DAG logs to be shipped to a S3 bucket.
