However, if by any chance your use case is to ssh to the server to start an application or service that will run continuously, you may want to look at a systemd service. | |

Start the process with nohup and the &. For example, nohup some-long-running-process &. Although as @Nikita Kipriyanov suggested, screen is a much better option.

Use GNU Screen gnu.org/software/screen instead of backgrounding a process.
