Ubuntu 16.10: Run Elasticsearch as a deamon or just start it on system startup

My Elasticsearch server is already running as a service. I can start and run it like so:

sudo service elasticsearch start 
sudo service elasticsearch stop

However I would like to have it always running. Currently I need to start it manually on every system boot. I have already tried to register it as a deamon with the following commands:

sudo update-rc.d elasticsearch defaults 
sudo update-rc.d elasticsearch defaults 95 10

I still need to start the Elasticsearch server manually. What do I need to do to run Elasticsearch as a daemon or start it at all on system startup? Since it is my local development environment, I would not need Elasticsearch as a daemon. I just need to start it on the startup of my system.

Not sure if you've found the answer or not (I'm assuming so), but for anyone who has not; you can use:

sudo systemctl enable elasticsearch.service
