Foreman is a process manager commonly used during development of
multi-component applications. For production, it allows allow you to either
run your application directly or export it to some other process management
format (i.e. init system service files).
.
Foreman uses a file called Procfile, which is the same mechanism for declaring
what commands are run by your application’s dynos on the Heroku platform. It
follows the process model. You can use a Procfile to declare various process
types, such as multiple types of workers, a singleton process like a clock, or
a consumer of the Twitter streaming API.
