Systemd, which means system daemon system daemon, is a new initialization system and system management tool that is now so popular that most Linux distributions begin to use this new initialization system.

Systemctl is a systemd tool that helps us manage systemd daemons. It controls the startup procedures and services of the system, uses parallelization, activates sockets and D-Bus for started services, provides on-demand startup of daemons, uses Linux control groups to track processes, and maintains mount and automatic mount points.

In addition, it provides logging daemons, features for controlling basic system configurations, such as hostnames, dates, locales, maintaining a list of logged-in users and running containers and virtual machines, system accounts, runtime directories and settings, and daemons that manage simple network configuration, network time synchronization, log forwarding, and name resolution.
