Ubuntu created upstart around the same time systemd was created, both meant to replace the classic init system. Debian voted to adopt systemd as their new init system instead of upstart, and so now ubuntu, because of it's debian dependencies, will be dropping upstart and moving to systemd as well.

- rlpb 12y ago> Ubuntu created upstart around the same time systemd was created, both meant to replace the classic init system. Upstart predates systemd by over four years. I just checked the initial release dates on Wikipedia to confirm. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upstart https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Upstart [August 24, 2006] vs. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Systemd [30 March 2010]
