How to keep meteor reliable in a production environment?

Question

I'm currently developing an application in meteor and I'm worried what might happen if a serious bug (or anything) crashes the web application. I have never worked on a production application, but I've read how downtime can seriously impact a business.

I searched and I found this answer: How to run Meteor forever? And is it good using 3rd party database?

The following link mostly answers my question using a node package called Forever which I've read is old and not an optimal solution for keeping node (in this case, meteor) running. Is nohup the best way? Are there any meteor packages or other ways to keep meteor running in the case of a crash?

Edit: I'm currently running Meteor on Fedora 22. I know there might be some open source solutions for this, but I'm not aware of them. Hopefully this might help anyone answer my question. Thanks!

It's simple as everything in Meteor. Just use Meteor up package for deployment and you are ready to go. Nothing scary.
