Extract from POSA 4

The specific partitioning criteria can be defined along various dimensions, such as abstraction, granularity, hardware distance, and rate of change.

The abstraction dimension

For example, a layering that partitions an architecture into presentation, application logic, and persistent data follows the abstraction dimension.

Check that your system supports systemd

pidof systemd
2733

If this return a number then your system supports systemd. Most Linux distributions in 2017 support systemd.

Check out the proceses currently running.

Since systemd starts the process then all processes will be children of systemd
