There's a reference to upstart in the article. We have played with demonizing SBCL (there are a couple of projects out there), but then Grammarly as a whole moved to upstart-based deployments. They are really easy to manage: basically, you just give it a normal (Lisp) script.

Something I need to get around to doing is playing with Docker and SBCL - it gives you daemonization out of the box. Have you tried that?

Yes, we're in the process of moving to docker-based deployments now. In fact, we already have ClozureCL running inside docker, but haven't yet done the same for SBCL. TBD soon :)
